Question

find the factors of the above quadratic equation.

\\x^2 + 11x - 1452 = 0\\

a. \\((x - 44)(x - 33)\\)
b. \\((x + 44)(x + 33)\\)
c. \\((x - 44)(x + 33)\\)
d. \\((x + 44)(x - 33)\\)

Explanation:

Identify the quadratic equation

Using the Quadratic Equations knowledge point

$$ x^2 + 11x - 1452 = 0 $$

Find two numbers that multiply to -1452 and add to 11

Using the Factoring Quadratic Trinomials knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Write the factored form

Using the Factoring Quadratic Trinomials knowledge point

$$ (x + 44)(x - 33) = 0 $$

Answer:

  • a. (x - 44) (x - 33)
  • b. (x + 44) (x + 33)
  • c. (x - 44) (x + 33)
  • d. (x + 44) (x - 33) (Correct answer)
