Question

Factor completely. n2 + 7n - 44

Answer 1

It’s 14n-44 (n2 and 7n have the same letter so you multiply 2 by 7 then keep the n.)

Answer 2

Answer:

(n−4)(n+11)

Step-by-step explanation:

- Ask yourself what two numbers multiply to give you 44, but add to give you 7. This will be 4 and 11 as shown in answer.

- The reason it is - and then + is because that is one of the factoring rules you will need to learn and follow. I would suggest looking them up.

- Next, seperate the n2 and fill in the problem with the numbers and signs.

- Check your work by multiplying this out.

- Hope this helps! If you need a further explanation or more help please let me know.
