Question

Explain why x^2 + 4x + 3 is factorable.

PLEASE I NEED HELP!!​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In order to find the values to factorize the equation, we need to find the factors the factors of 3 that sum to 4

The factors of 3 are
`\pm: 1, 3`

We can make 4 with 1 + 3

Since all the values are positive, both of the factors will have addition

`x^2+4x+3\\(x+3)(x+1)\\\\x^2 + x + 3x + 3\\x^ + 4x + 3`
