## anonymous one year ago Factor. x2 + 7x + 12 A. (x – 12)(x – 1) B. (x – 6)(x – 2) C. (x + 3)(x + 4) D. (x – 3)(x – 4)

$\mathrm{Factor}\:x^2+7x+12:\quad \left(x+3\right)\left(x+4\right)$

you are a life saver

there are 3+ way to factor quadratic equations leading coefficient is on in this question so better to apply *headphone* method :D |dw:1437342979851:dw| multiply AC then find two number if you multiply them you should get product of AC and if you addo r subtract them you should get middle term

MR. Decent nabeel why so hurry eh ?

lol

7. DecentNabeel

ok.. first break the expression into groups.. $=\left(4x+12\right)+\left(x^2+3x\right)$

i appreciate the time your taking @Nnesha

and you to @DecentNabeel

then $\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:}4x+12\mathrm{:\quad }4\left(x+3\right)$ $\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:}x^2+3x\mathrm{:\quad }x\left(x+3\right)$ $=x\left(x+3\right)+4\left(x+3\right)$ factor out x+3 $=\left(x+4\right)\left(x+3\right)$

13. DecentNabeel

@Nnesha are you ok
