Question

How can I factor this Trinomial? Please show me how! 3x² - 8x + 4

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² - 8x + 4 =

3x² - 6x -2x + 4 =

3x(x-2) -2(x-2) =

(3x -2)(x-2)

Answer 2

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x^2-8x+4$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x^2-6x-2x+4$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x(x-2)-2(x-2)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x-2)(3x-2)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Done!$
