Answer: C) Find the factors of c that add up to b.
==============================================
Explanation:
If we want to factor something in the form x^2+bx+c, then we look for two numbers that
-------------
Let's look at a specific example
Consider factoring x^2+5x+6
We need to find two numbers that...
- Multiply to c = 6
- Add to b = 5
Through trial and error, you should find the two numbers to be 3 and 2. This means it factors to (x+3)(x+2). The order of the factors doesn't matter.
You can use the FOIL rule or the box method to expand out (x+3)(x+2). You should get x^2+5x+6 again.
Answer:
10x² + 6x + 3xy + 3y - y²
Step-by-step explanation:
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, as shown
(2x + y)(5x - y + 3)
= 2x(5x - y + 3) + y(5x - y + 3) ← distributing
= 10x² - 2xy + 6x + 5xy - y² + 3y ( collect like terms )
= 10x² + 6x + 3xy + 3y - y²
