Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
((2•3x2) - 89x) - 15
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 6x2-89x-15
The first term is, 6x2 its coefficient is 6 .
The middle term is, -89x its coefficient is -89 .
The last term, "the constant", is -15
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 6 • -15 = -90
Step-2 : Find two factors of -90 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -89 .
| -90 | + | 1 | = | -89 | That's it |
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -90 and 1
6x2 - 90x + 1x - 15
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
6x • (x-15)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
1 • (x-15)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(6x+1) • (x-15)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(x - 15) • (6x + 1)
