(2x - 5)(2x - 5)
2x**3-10x**2+3x-15 2x**2(x-5)+3(x-5) (2x**2+3)(x-5)
8x^2 + 6x - 5 = 8x^2 + 10x - 4x - 5 = 2x * (4x + 5) - (4x + 5) = (2x -1) * (4x + 5)
(2x + 5)(6x - 5)
You have to experiment with different factors of 2, and different factors of 15. In this case, 2x2 - 11x + 15 = (2x - 5) (x - 3)
(2x - 5) is a binomial factor
(2x - 5)(2x - 5) or (2x - 5) squared
(2x - 5)(2x - 5)
(2x - 1)(2x + 5)
(2x + 5)(2x + 5)
(x + 1)(2x - 5)
(2x-5) (x-1)
(2x + 3)(2x - 5)
4x2-8x-5 (2x+1)(2x-5)
If that's - 4x, the answer is (2x + 3)(2x - 5) If that's + 4x, the answer is (2x - 3)(2x + 5)
If that's - 8x - 5, the answer is (2x + 1)(2x - 5). If that's + 8x + 5, it gets ugly in a hurry.
(2x + 5)(2x - 5)
