Ms. Wilson draws a model of the factorization of a polynomial with integer factors. Her model is partially complete. Which equation is represented by Ms. Wilson’s model?
Answer
A
n2 + 3n + 40 = (n – 8)(n – 5)B
n2 + 13n + 40 = (n + 8)(n + 5)C
n2 + 40n + 13 = (n + 8)(n + 5)D
n2 + 40n + 3 = (n – 8)(n – 5)
