Hey! I JUST took the k12 TOD quiz for this and the answer is 55!
Is this your final are you taking a test
13. Is 8
14. Is 10
15. Is D
Answer: (X-12)(x+4)
The middle number is -8 and the last number is -48.
Factoring means we want something like
(x+_)(x+_)
Which numbers go in the blanks?
We need two numbers that...
Add together to get -8
Multiply together to get -48
Can you think of the two numbers?
Try 4 and -12:
4+-12 = -8
4*-12 = -48
Fill in the blanks in
(x+_)(x+_)
with 4 and -12 to get...
(x+4)(x-12)
Answer:
(x+4)(x−12)
