Answer: (x+1)(x+3)</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
Let's assume it factors into (x+a)(x+b)
The goal is to find the two numbers a and b.
FOIL out (x+a)(x+b) to get x^2+(a+b)x+ab
Note how a+b is the middle term and ab is the last term.
In the original expression, 4 is the middle term and 3 is the last term.
So we need to find two numbers that
There are two ways to multiply to 3 and they are
- 1 times 3 = 3
- -1 times -3 = -3
But only the first way has the factors add to 4. So that means a = 1 and b = 3.
Therefore (x+a)(x+b) = (x+1)(x+3)
And x^2+4x+3 = (x+1)(x+3)
Answer:
= 5n
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms
d = 10 - 5 = 15 - 10 = 20 - 15 = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 5 and d = 5 , then
= 5 + 5(n - 1) = 5 + 5n - 5 = 5n
