What number do you need help with
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
<span>Equation at the end of step 2 :</span> 6x2 - x - 4 = 0 <span>((2•3x2) - x) - 4 = 0
</span><span>Step 2 :</span>Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
<span> 2.1 </span> Factoring <span> 6x2-x-4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>6x2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 6 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -x </span> its coefficient is <span> -1 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 6</span> • -4 = -24</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of -24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -1 </span>.
<span><span> -24 + 1 = -23</span><span> -12 + 2 = -10</span><span> -8 + 3 = -5</span><span> -6 + 4 = -2</span><span> -4 + 6 = 2</span><span> -3 + 8 = 5</span><span> -2 + 12 = 10</span><span> -1 + 24 = 23

Amount of sales of newspapers for the month of January = $8341.50
Percentage of profit for which the newspaper is sold = 0.5%
Then
Amount of profit made in the month of January = 0.5% * 8341.50 dollars
= (0.5/100) * 8341.50 dollars
= 4170.75/100 dollars
= 41.707 dollars
= 41.71 dollars
So the shop makes a profit of $41.71 in the month of January by selling newspapers worth $8341.50. I hope the procedure is perfectly clear for you to understand.
