The second step in the process for factoring the trinomial x^2-3x-40 is to

Second step  x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) in process of factoring .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Trinomial x²-3x-40 .

To find : The second step in the process for factoring .

Solution : We have x²-3x-40 .

On factoring x²+ 5x - 8x - 40 .

Taking common x from first two terms and -8 from last two terms.

x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) .

Therefore , Second step  x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) in process of factoring .

step-by-step explanation:

once you graph it hit 2nd (the blue button) and graph

that takes you to a table of coordinates

on the left is x coordinates and on the right is y coordinates and an empty box

(you may have to scroll up/down in order to get ( x, 0)
