In the factorization of 3x^2-20x-192=0, how can -20x be split into two terms? |
|
Answer» Step-by-step explanation: -20x should be split into 2 TWO TERMS in such a way that their PRODUCT = -192×3x²= -576x² = -36x×16x so, -36x+16x =20x 3x²-36x+16x-192=0 3x(x-12)+16(x-12)=0 (3x+16)(x-12)=0 3x+16=0, x-12=0 x=-16/3,12 |
