Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the -3 out:
-3(x^2 +4x+1)
It's best to use the quadratic formula in this case:
(-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
where a =1, b =4, c=1
(-4 ±√16 -4)/2(1)
when you do (-4+√16 -4)/2(1), you will get -2+√3 = -0.2679..
when you do (-4-√16 -4)/2(1), you will get -2-√3= -3.732..
So, the factored form would look like:
-3(x-2+√3)(x-2-√3)
Hope this helps!
Would really appreciate the brainliest if you think i helped!
