4 0

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   6 • -10 = -60

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -60  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -11 .

     -60    +    1    =    -59

     -30    +    2    =    -28

     -20    +    3    =    -17

     -15    +    4    =    -11    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -15  and  4

                    6n2 - 15n + 4n - 10

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

                   3n • (2n-5)

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

                   2 • (2n-5)

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

                   (3n+2)  •  (2n-5)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 (2n - 5) • (3n + 2)

A/9=-4 One-step equations
worty [1.4K]
A=(-36). When finding variables, try multiplying the quotient and divisor to get your dividend. Also, when multiplying/dividing negative integers, if there is one negative integer, the answer will be negative. the only exception is when multiplying/dividing two negative integers, then it would be positive. -36/9=(-4)
