Because the coefficient of x^2 is -1, we know that a will be -1. Knowing that the coefficient of x is -4, we can calculate that p=2. Thus, we have -1(x+2)^2+q is our equation. This is equal to -x^2-4x-4+q. As the constant term must be 2, we can then see that q is 6.
As such, we have -1(x+2)^2+6=0 as our factorization.
To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula. Plugging in values, we have:
which is equal to: (when the fraction is simplified)
The solution to the equation is x = 0, 2

The greatest common factor of two numbers, one of which is 1, will always be 1.
Answer:
4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 1 is adding an x and subtracting a 1 ,so
x + x + x + (x - 1) + 1 + 1 + 1
= x + x + x + x - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 ← collect like terms
= 4x + 2
