The question probably refers to factoring 5x2 + 7x - 24
The general form of a quadratic equation is ax2 + bx + c .
In this case, a = 5, b = 7 and c = -24.
ac = 5 x -24 = -120 = - (23 x 3 x 5)
Determine the two integers whose sum is b = 7 and whose product is ac = -120
The two integers are 15 and -8.
5x2 + 7x - 24 = 5x2 + 15x - 8x -24 = 5x(x + 3) - 8(x + 3) = (5x - 8)(x + 3)

Why do you use binomials?
Binomials are used when the total of n independent trials take place and one wants to find the probability of r successes, when each success has a probability "p" of occurring. There should be independent trails, Probability of success stays the same for all trials, Fixed number of trials and Two different classifications in order to use binomial distribution.
Write How the Factor Theorem can be used to determine whether x plus 1 is a factor of x3-2x2-8x-5?
we can use direct substitution. do this we must take the opposite of the constant in the factor that we want to test. -1*(1)=-1 now we simply take f(-1). =-1^3-(-2)^2-8(-1)-5 =-1-4+8-5 =-2 since we got -2 in the end (x+1) is not a factor of this polynomial. According to factor theorem it can only be a factor is the remainder is 0

How do you factor the cubic polynomial 4x3 plus 20x2 plus 2x-3?
This polynomial doesn't factor. The only thing you can do is take out parts of some terms, e.g. 2(2x3 + 10x2 + x) - 3.

4(g+4) you can take a 4 out from both terms
How do you take 7x2 minus 24x-16 and factor into two binomials?
Set up two brackets. Since 7 only has two factors, put 7x in one bracket and x in the other. The two other numbers will be a factor pair of 16 (16,1)(8,2)(4,4). Since the signs are minus, one of the brackets will be plus and one will be minus. Now you just have to put it together in a way that fits. We used to call that trial and error, now it's called guess and check. (7x + 4)(x - 4)
