Factors of polynomial 3xsquare +x-4

(3x + 4)(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + x - 4

use middle term break method

we need two number which gives 12 when multiplied and 1 when subtracted

3x^2 + (4 - 3)x - 4

3x^2 + 4x - 3x - 4

x(3x + 4) -1(3x + 4)

(3x + 4)(x - 1)

(x - 1)(3x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² + x - 4

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 3 × - 4 = -12 and sum = + 1

The factors are - 3 and + 4

Use these factors to split the x- term

3x² - 3x + 4x - 4 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x(x - 1) + 4(x - 1) ← factor out (x - 1) from each term

= (x - 1)(3x + 4) ← in factored form
