Question

Factor the expression. (1 point)

*2 + 10€ +16
A) (t+2) {t+5)
B)(t+2)(t+8)
C)(+4)(1+4)
D)(t+5)(1+4)

Answer 1

For this case we must factor the following expression:

`t ^ 2 + 10t + 16`

We must look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in 16 and, if they are summed, result in 10. These numbers are 8 and 2:

`8 + 2 = 10\\8 * 2 = 16`

Thus, the expression is factored as:

`(t + 2) (t + 8)`

Answer:

`(t + 2) (t + 8)`
