Question

Factor this trinomial: 5x^2+17x+6

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

`= 5 {x}^(2) + 17x + 6`

Solve it through mid-term factorization.

`= 5 {x}^(2) + (15 + 2)x + 6`

Simplify it.

`= 5 {x}^(2) + 15x + 2x + 6`

`= 5x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)`

`= (5x + 2)(x + 3)`

Therefore the factors are; (5x+2) (x+3).

Hope it helps...
