Question

what are factors of x^2+x-20

Answer 1

Factor y = x^2 + x - 20
Ans: (x - 4)( x + 5)
Explanation:
Find 2 numbers knowing sum (1) and product (-20).
To find them, factor pairs of (-20) --> (-2, 10)(-4, 5). This sum is 1 = b.
Then, these 2 numbers are: -4 and 5.
y = (x - 4)(x + 5)

Answer 2

(x − 4) (x + 5)
