Best Answer

In the absence of signs I have assumed the term in 16x and 60 are negative:

ie x2 - 16x = -60 or x2 - 16x + 60 = 0

Factors of 60 which total -16 are -6 and -10, so (x - 6)(x - 10)

How do you factor x2-16x equals -60?

Addd 60 to each side: x2 - 16x + 60 = 0; what two numbers multiply to 60 and add to 16? 6 and 10 look good, so... (x - 6)(x - 10) = 0 x = 6 or 10


How do you factor 3x3-3x2-48x-60 equals 0?

3x3 -3x2 - 48x - 60 = 0 simply factor out a 3... 3(x3 - x2 - 16x - 20) = 0

How do you factor x squared minus 16x plus 60?

To factorize x^2 - 16x + 60, you need to find two numbers that multiply to 60 and add up to -16. The numbers are -10 and -6. Therefore, the factorization is (x - 10)(x - 6).


X2 plus 16x plus 55 equals?

How do you factor x2 16x plus 64?

to factor (x2-16x+64), you need to find two number whose product is 64 and whose sum is 16. These two numbers are 8 and 8. (x2-16x+64)=(x-8)(x-8)

What number must you add to complete the square x2 plus 16x equals 3?

Half of the coefficient of x, squared. For example: x2 + 16x -3 you would add 8^2. Then you would have: x2 +16x +8^2 = 3-8^2 Which leads to: (x+8)^2 = -61

How do you factor the trinomial x2 plus 19x plus 60?

use the quadratic formula since there isn't a factor of 60 that when added together equals 19 The above answer is wrong because 4 and 15 are such numbers. x2 + 19x + 60 = x2 + 4x + 15x + 60 = x(x + 4) + 15(x + 4) = (x + 4)(x + 15)
