Factor the polynomial completely That is once you are finish
Factor the polynomial completely. That is, once you are finished factoring, none of the factors you obtain should be factorable. (If the expression is not factorable, enter NF.)
a)x2 + 4y2
b)xy 5x + 2y 10
c)xy + 5x + 4y + 20
d)81x2 + y2
Solution
a)x2 + 4y2
Not factorable
b)xy 5x + 2y 10
x(y-5) +2(y-5) = (y-5)(x+2)
c)xy + 5x + 4y + 20
x(y+5) +4(y+5) = (y+5)(x+4)
d)81x2 + y2
Not factorable
