Factor 4n^2 - 5n -6​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Allushta [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(n-2) • (4n+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4n2-5n-6  

Final result :

 (n - 2) • (4n + 3)

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (22n2 -  5n) -  6

Step  2  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     Factoring  4n2-5n-6  

The first term is,  4n2  its coefficient is  4 .

The middle term is,  -5n  its coefficient is  -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -6  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   4 • -6 = -24  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -24  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -5 .

     -24    +    1    =    -23  

     -12    +    2    =    -10  

     -8    +    3    =    -5    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -8  and  3  

                    4n2 - 8n + 3n - 6

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   4n • (n-2)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (n-2)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (4n+3)  •  (n-2)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 (n - 2) • (4n + 3)

The sum of x and 3/5 is 5/7.
crimeas [40]
We first write the word in math as x+3/5 = 5/7.  Now we cross multiply our fractions and rewrite them with the LCD of 5 and 7. Our equation now looks like x + 21/35 = 25/35.  We simplify our equation by subtracting 21/35 from both sides to get x = 4/35. 4/35 is already in lowest terms so it is our answer.
