To Factor:The
Answer to Problem 54WE
Simplest form is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
Let’s factor using AC method of factoring.
So, rewrite the expression as
Coefficient of
Coeffiicient of middle term is 5.
Coefficient of last term is 6.
Now, multiply the 1 and 6 which is 6.
Find two integers whose multiplication is 6 but adds to 5.
To find that, list all two integers whose multiplication is 6.
Here 2,3 works.
Because 2*3=6
2+3=5
Now, rewrite expression as
Group the terms and factor using GCF method.
Factor each group using GCF method.
Simplify each parentheses,
Simplify further by combining like terms,
Both terms has
It gives
Simplify the expression further
Combine like terms,
Here
So, let’s take it out.
Simplify it,
