In a quadratic expression, the highest power of \(x\) is \(x^2\). Factorise \(x^2 + 7x + 10\). To factorise this expression, find two numbers that have a product of +10 and a sum of +7. There are a ...
In a quadratic expression using \(x\) as the variable, the highest power of \(x\) is \(x^2\). Factorise \(x^2 + 7x + 10\). To factorise this expression, find two numbers that have a product of +10 and ...
