Erin is using this area model to factor 6x ^ 2 - 7x - 20 She puts two terms in the upper left and lower righ boxes.
6x ^ 2
-20
The product of the two terms shown in the area model is
(1 point)
- 120x ^ 2
-120x
120x
120x ^ 2
The sum of the missing two terms in the area model must be (1 point)
6x ^ 2
- 7x
- 20
The missing two terms she is looking for are
- 13x, 7x
- 15x, 8x
- 6x, - x
The expression factors to (1 point)
(x - 4)(6x + 5)
○ (3x + 4)(2x - 5)
○ (3x - 4)(2x + 5)
○ (x + 4)(6x - 5)
The product of the two terms shown in the area model is 120x^2.
The sum of the missing two terms in the area model must be -7x.
The missing two terms she is looking for are -15x, 8x.
The expression factors to (3x + 4)(2x - 5).
