Question

Factor completely. p2+7p+10 Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Use the AC method (p+2) (p+5)

Answer 2

`(p+5)(p+2)`

Explanation:

Factor completely:

`p^2+7p+10`

Split the middle term 7 as 5 and 2 we have;

`p^2+5p+2p+10`

⇒
`p(p+5)+2(p+5)`

Take (p+5) common we have;

⇒
`(p+5)(p+2)`

Therefore, the complete factor of
`p^2+7p+10` is,
`(p+5)(p+2)`
