Question

Find the missing factor.
6s^2- 13s + 7 = (6s- 7)()

Answer 1

(s - 1)

Explanation:

To figure out what the missing factor is, we divide the product of the factors by the factor we know.

6s² - 13s + 7 / 6s - 7

s - 1

I'm always happy to help :)

Answer 2

(s - 1).

Explanation:

The first part will be s ( to give the 6s^2), then we need a number whose product with -7 is + 7 and that is -1. So:

6s^2- 13s + 7 = (6s- 7)(s - 1).
