Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(22x2 - 33x) - 27
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 4x2-33x-27
The first term is, 4x2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -33x its coefficient is -33 .
The last term, "the constant", is -27
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • -27 = -108
Step-2 : Find two factors of -108 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -33 .
| -108 | + | 1 | = | -107 | ||
| -54 | + | 2 | = | -52 | ||
| -36 | + | 3 | = | -33 | That's it |
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -36 and 3
4x2 - 36x + 3x - 27
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
4x • (x-9)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
3 • (x-9)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(4x+3) • (x-9)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(x - 9) • (4x + 3)
