Question

Factor Completely: 6x2 + 28x − 10

Answer 1

Answer:

$2(x + 15)(x-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to factor, we take out common terms.

1. $6x^{2} + 28x -10$
2. The biggest common term we can factor out is 2:
3. $2(3x^{2} +14-5)$
4. Now we factor the area in parentheses into 2 binomials. To do this we need 2 numbers that multiply to be -15 and add to be 14. Theses numbers are 15 and -1.
5. $2(x + 15)(x-1)$
