Factor the expression 2z24z6 Factor the expression x236 Find
Factor the expression 2z2+4z-6.
Factor the expression x2-36.
Find the zeros of y = 11x2 + 48x + 16.
Solution
2z2 + 4z - 6
= 2z2 + 6z - 2z - 6
= 2z(z+3) -2(z+3)
= (z+3)(2z-2)
2 . x2 - 36 = x2 - 6 2 = (x-6)(x+6)
3. y = 11x2 + 48x + 16
y = 11x2 + 44x + 4x + 16
y = 11x(x+4) + 4 (x+4)
y = (x+4) (11x+4)
x = -4
x= -4/11
