Factor the trinomial below. 8x2 - 12x - 8
O A. 4(2x + 1)(x - 2)
B. 4(2x + 2)(x - 1)
O C. 4(2x + 3)(x - 1)
D. 4(2x + 1)(x-8)

A.

Explanation:

1. You can factor out a 4.

2. Factor .

        X-Method:

        1. Draw an X

        2. Multiply ac (2(-2)=-4) then put it in the top part of the X

        3. Then put b, -3, in the bottom part of the X

        4. On the two sides of the X find out what added together equals b, -3,

        and multiplied equals ac, -4.

        5. -4(1)=-4 & -4+1=-3

        6. If the quadratic has a coefficient then you must divide the two sides

        of the X by that coefficient, 2.

        7. -4/2=-2 & 1/2 can't be evenly divided into, so in this case the

        coefficient remains.

        8. When you write this out it will be (2x+1)(x-2)

3. Put it together to get your answer.

step-by-step explanation:

ask goog great chance of finding the solution there

answer: domain and range mean all possible values of x and y that could be substituted to the inequality. a solution means all possible values that make the inequality statement true. so while the range is still all real numbers, the solution is the shaded area, for which y will always be greater than the line of the function.
