Question

Factor 4x^2+20x-24 into bionomials

Answer 1

Answer:

$4(x-1)(x+6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

→Take out the GCF (Greatest Common Factor), which is 4:

$4x^2+20x-24$

$4(x^2+5x-6)$

→Split the middle term into two numbers that can be added to get 5 and multiplied to get 6:

$4(x-1)(x+6)$

Answer 2

Answer:

4( x+6) (x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2+20x-24

Factor out the greatest common factor

4(x^2 +5x-6)

What 2 numbers multiply to -6 and add to 5

6*-1 = -6

6+-1 = 5

4( x+6) (x-1)
