The least possible sum is 10.
The pairs of factors for 24 are (1,24), (2,12), (3,8), (4,6) with sums 25, 14, 11, 10. So the numbers are 4 and 6.
6+4
Sixty miles over four gallons would reduce down to 15 miles over one gallon which would 15 miles per gallon.
Answer: (3x+2)(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:Explanation:
3x2+10x−8
first multiply
3
with −8
and we get −24
then find two numbers that if we add or subtract we get
+10
and if we multiply we get
−24
and the numbers are
+12
and
−2
then we place those numbers as follow :-
3x2+12x−2x−8
then we group them
(3x2+12x)(−2x−8)
now take the common factor out.3x(x+4)−2(x+4)
then group the numbers outside of the brackets
(3x−2)(x+4)
