Question from Abbie, a student: I have two problems same topic. I belive they cannot be factored but i want to make sure. x2+6x-40 Thank you, Abbie |
Abbie,
I agree that the second quadratic can't be factored but the first can be.
Can you find two integers which have a product of 40 and a difference of 6?
