Write the following equations in factored form. Remember to common factor first

(if possible) 𝑦 = 2𝑥2 + 3𝑥 − 2

1 answer

First, we can try to common factor the expression inside the brackets:

𝑦 = 2𝑥2 + 3𝑥 − 2

𝑦 = (2𝑥 − 1)(𝑥 + 2)

Therefore, the factored form of the equation is:

𝑦 = (2𝑥 − 1)(𝑥 + 2)
