Answer:
(x + 6)(x-4) = -16
x² + 2x -24 = -16
x² + 2x - 8 = 0
(x + 4)(x-2) = 0
x = - 4 or x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A=4, B=3, C=2, D=7 or A=2, B=7, C=4, D=3
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor this, you are looking for factors of 8×21 = 168 that have a sum of 34.
168 = 1×168 = 2×84 = 3×56 = 4×42 = 6×28 = 7×24 = 8×21 = 12×14
The sums of these factor pairs are 169, 86, 59, 46, 34, 31, 29, 26. The factor pair whose sum is 34 is 6×28. This means we can rewrite the expression as ...
8x² +28x +6x +21
Factoring by pairs gives ...
4x(2x +7) +3(2x +7)
(4x +3)(2x +7) ⇒ A=4, B=3, C=2, D=7 or A=2, B=7, C=4, D=3
Use Slide method for some of them, some are perfect squares:
Watch this video and try it a few times, pay attention to the signs when you are seeing which one will be negative when you multiply it out, in picture is me working out all problems requested.
