Question

Factorise x^2-5x-6 please!??!?

Answer 1

(x+1) (x-6)

Explanation:

factorice la expresion

x^2 + x - 6x- 6

x(x + 1) -6(x + 1)

la solucion es:

(x + 1) (x - 6)

Answer 2

(x - 6)(x + 1)

Explanation:

Given

x² - 5x - 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 6 and + 1 , since

- 6 × 1 = - 6 and - 6 + 1 = - 5, thus

x² - 5x - 6 = (x - 6)(x + 1) ← in factored form
