(6x 2 + 23x + 20) ÷ (5 + 2x)

(6x + 1) • (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           4

Simplify   —

           1

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (((6 • (x2)) +  23x) +  4) +  2x

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

 (((2•3x2) +  23x) +  4) +  2x

Step  3  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 Factoring  6x2+25x+4

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.
