Consider the quadratic expression given below.Factor the following expression completely. 3x^2-30x-72
Question
Answer:
[tex]3 x^{2} -30x-72=3( x^{2} -10x-24)[/tex]Using cross multiplication method,
x -12 -12x
x 2 2x
[tex] x^{2} [/tex] -24 -10x
Therefore,
[tex]3 x^{2} -30x-72=3( x^{2} -10x-24)[/tex]
=3(x-12)(x+2)
