Which of the following is equal to (x+2)(x+3)?
x2+5x+6
x2+4x+6
x2+3x+6
x2+2x+6
We know that:
(x+a)(x+b)=x2+x(a+b)+ab
⇒(x+2)(x+3)=x2+x(2+3)+2×3
⇒(x+2)(x+3)=x2+5x+6
Four alternative options are given for each of the following statements. Select the correct option.
What is the product (x + 2) (x − 3)?
A. 2x − 6
B. 3x − 2
C. x2 − x − 6
D. x2 − 6x
