Question

Select the correct answer. which expression shows the factors of 5x2 17x 6? a. (5x 1)(x 6) b. (5x 2)(x 3) c. (5x 3)(x 2) d. (5x 6)(x 1)

Answer 1

B. (5x + 2)(x + 3)

Explanation:

5x times x = 5x^2

5x times 3 = 15x

2 times x = 2x

2 times 3 = 6

15x + 2x = 17x

5x^2 + 17x + 6

P.S. next time please word your question better. Took me a while you meant "5x^2 plus 17x plus 6", since your equation reads "5 times 2 BLANK 17 times 6".
