Question

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial?
X^2 + 5x + 6

Answer 1

X^2+5x+6=26+15+16 over the time it’s solversd

Answer 2

(x + 2) , (x + 3) are factors

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 + 2 and + 3, since

2 × 3 = 6 and 2 + 3 = 5 , thus

x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3)
