What are the factors of 15xy+6x2?
3x(5y+2x)
3(5y+2x)
3x(5+2x)
3x(5y+x)
The expression 15xy+6x2 can be written as
3×5×x×y+3×2×x×x...(i)
Taking 3x as common factor from (i), we get
=3x(5y+2x)
⇒15xy+6x2=3x(5y+2x)
Therefore, the factors of 15xy+6x2 are 3x and (5y+2x).
Multiply (x + 1) and 2x:
If one factor of 5+8x−4x2 is (2x+1), then the second factor is
