Fantastic news! We've Found the answer you've been seeking!
Step by Step Answer:
To factor the polynomial 2m2 mn 15n2 we need to find two binomial factors that when multiplied give us the original polynomial First we look for two numbers that multiply to give 30 the product of the coefficients of the first and last terms and add up to 1 the coefficient of the middle term The numbers 6 and 5 satisfy these conditions Therefore we can rewrite the polynomial as follows 2m2 mn 15n2 2m2 6mn 5mn 15n2 Next we group the terms 2m2 6mn 5mn 15n2 Now we factor out the greatest common factor from each group 2mm 3n 5nm 3n Notice that we have a common binomial factor ...View the full answer
