Question

What is the factor form?

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² + 3x + 2

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 3)

The factors are + 1 and + 2, since

1 × 2 = 2 and 1 + 2 = 3, thus

f(x) = x² + 3x + 2 = (x + 1)(x + 2)

Answer 2

This is the factor form
