Question

Can you help me with this question.

Answer 1

27. (2x + 3)(x + 5)

Explanation:

27.

Use the 'ac' method

a*c = 2 * 15 = 30

We need 2 numbers whose product is 30 and whose sum is 13.

3 and 10 look good so we write

2x^2 + 10x + 3x + 15

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

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