Question

Factorise : 48 + 22x -x²​

Answer 1

(x+2)(24-x)

Explanation:

48+22x-x²

= -x²-2x+24x+48

= -x(x+2)+24(x+2)

= (x+2)(24-x)

Answer 2

`( - x - 2)(x - 24)`

Explanation:

`48 + 22x - {x}^(2) \\ - {x}^(2) + 22x + 48 \\ - {x}^(2) + 24x - 2x + 48 \\ - x(x - 24) - 2(x - 24) \\ ( - x - 2)(x - 24)`
