Question

How do you factor this??
(no need to show how u got the answer as long as ur sure of it)

Answer 1

Hi again!

y² + 6y + 8
Factor
(y + 2)(y + 4)


Good luck!

Answer 2

Factor : y² + 6y + 8

Basically, all you have to do is plug in random numbers.

I'm pretty sure that there is an easier way to do it, but I haven't been taught that yet, so for me, guessing & checking would be the best way to get your answer.

The answer I got after tons of failed attempts was :

(y + 2)(y + 4)

~Hope I helped!~
