Question

Factor:(m+2)^2−(m+2)+mn·(n+2)+2n(n+2)

Answer 1

ANSWER
${(m + 2)}( {n}^{2} + 2n + m + 1)$

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

${(m + 2)}^{2} - (m + 2) + mn(n + 2) + 2n(n + 2)$

We factor to get,

$= {(m + 2)}(m + 2 - 1) +n (n + 2) (m+ 2)$

This implies that,

$= {(m + 2)}(m + 1) +n (n + 2) (m+ 2)$

We factor further to obtain,

$= {(m + 2)}((m + 1) +n (n + 2))$

or

$= {(m + 2)}( {n}^{2} + 2n + m + 1)$
