Question

Erin is using this area model to factor 10x2-8x-24. She puts two terms in the upper left and lower right boxes. 10x2 -24 The product of the two terms shown in the area model is

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression of the area model as:

10x^2-8x-24

Factorize:

(10x^2-20x)+(12x-24)

factor out the GCF

10x(x-2)+ 12(x-2)

(10x+12)(x-2)

Hence the two terms that forms the area of the model above are 10x+12 and x-2
