Answer:
(C)(x + 4)(x + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation in the form of polynomial is:
[tex]x^2+9x+20[/tex]
Factorizing the above given equation, we get
[tex]x^2+5x+4x+20[/tex]
[tex]x(x+5)+4(x+5)[/tex]
Taking x+5 common, we have
[tex](x+4)(x+5)[/tex]
which is the required factorised form.
Therefore the factors of the given polynomial are [tex](x+4)(x+5)[/tex].
Thus, Option (C) is correct.
The factored form of the polynomial x² + 9x + 20 is ( x + 4 ) ( x + 5 )
Further explanation
Discriminant of quadratic equation ( ax² + bx + c = 0 ) could be calculated by using :
D = b² - 4 a c
From the value of Discriminant , we know how many solutions the equation has by condition :
D < 0 → No Real Roots
D = 0 → One Real Root
D > 0 → Two Real Roots
Let us now tackle the problem!
Given :
[tex]x^2 + 9x + 20[/tex]
To factor this form, we first look for the following operations:
_ + _ = 9
_ × _ = 20
To fill in the blanks, the matching numbers are :
4 + 5 = 9
4 × 5 = 20
Next, the above equation can be factorized into:
[tex]x^2 + 9x + 20[/tex]
[tex]x^2 + 4x + 5x + 20[/tex]
[tex](x^2 + 4x) + (5x + 20)[/tex]
[tex]x(x + 4) + 5(x + 4)[/tex]
[tex]\large {\boxed {(x + 4)(x + 5)} }[/tex]
