First, I'll multiply by -1, to make it a little easier to work with (then when done, I'll multiply by -1 again): x2 + 2x - 48. We want two numbers, when multiplied yield -48, and the sum is 2: -6 and 8. (x + 8)(x - 6) works. Now multiply one of the binomial factors by -1: (x + 8)(6 - x). Multiply using FOIL to check: -x2 - 2x + 48

What is the factorization of the trinomial below -x2-11x plus 26?
-x2 - 11x + 26= -x2 - 13x + 2x + 26= (2x - x2) + (26 - 13x)= x(2 - x) + 13(2 - x)= (2 - x)(x + 13)
