First Equation
6x² + 7x - 49
A= 6 B=7 C=-49
A.C =
294
Factors │ Sum
294=21 (-14) │ 21 + -14 = 7
Final Answer:
(6x² + 21 - 14 – 49) (3x - 7)(2x + 7)
(6x² + 21) - (14 – 49)
(3x(2x + 7) - 7(2x + 7)
Second Equation
4n² - 15n - 25
A= 4 B=-15 C=-25
A.C = -100
Factors │ Sum
-100=-20 (5) │ -20 + 5 = -
15 Final Answer:
(4n² -20n + 5n - 25)
(4n² - 20n) + (5n - 25) (4n + 5)(n - 5)
4n(n - 5) + 5(n - 5)
