What is the factored form of the polynomial? x^2 - 16x + 48 (x - 4)(x - 12) (x - 6)(x - 8) (x + 4)(x + 12) (x + 6)(x + 8)
Added by Jamie C.
Step 1
Factors of 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 We can see that 4 and 12 are the factors of 48 that add up to 16. However, since we need them to add up to -16, we will use -4 and -12. Show more…
