    You sir deserve a medal. I have spent ages trying to understand this and you explained it in under 15 minutes. Thank you!

    I have a big exam in about 4 hours and I spent an hour watching your factorising videos last night and i'm rewatching them now to refresh my memory. You have explained this better than my maths lecturer in college ever did. She just spends 10 minutes writing it on the board without ever going into as much depth as you do and then hands out worksheets expecting everyone to understand :/

    @devillord18 No - however I would none the less encourage all my students I teach to use it as it is the correct sign to use rather than =. = is for equations.

    @carlosderock5811 12 років тому

    wow thanks! i've got a test tomorrow for this and my teacher cant teach AT ALL and because of your explanation i fully understand it now.and hopefully i won't get a borderline C! :)

  • @nobodypersonsomeone

    @ExamSolutions Is factorising quadratics something different to this?
    I was taught they were supposed to be put in two separate brackets like this:
    x^2 + 9x + 18 would factorise into
    (x + 3)(x + 6)
    Am I thinking of something different? Thanks for your help

    @TheNomadSoul1988 3 роки тому

    wish I could go back in time and tell 15 yr old me I'd be doing highschool maths for fun in the future. It's so crazy how the pressure of performing against peers and needing to "get it" before an exam just sucks the fun out of maths. If you got all day and you don't care if you don't get something because no one is watching and ultimately you don't really have to then it's all so much easier and more enjoyable. Thanks for another great video.

    Thanks a lot, for this lesson! I did subscribe because, i was expecting a lesson on ''How To Solve Pythagoras Theorem'' I do know how to solve it also i have checked other clips/videos but seeing this clip/video gives me a much more understanding of what i am doing...So hopefully you I get to understand ''Pythagoris Therom'' better with your help.
    Thanks Again!

    For 4x+12 I initially put 2(2x+6) Would this be a legitimate answer or would you have to choose the higher common factor of 4?

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  7 років тому

      It is factorised but yes you should put 4(x+3) as this would be regarded as a better answer.

  • @ExamSolutions_Maths
    @ExamSolutions_Maths  11 років тому

    First of all you cannot solve it as it is not an equation as it does not equal anything. It is an expression. I think you meant how do you factorise it. Tghere is no common factor but it factorises to (x+4)(x-3). Hope that helps?

    Hi, how factories this
    6(x-3)^2 +13(x-3)+5
    ?
    The method is called the substation method, perhaps you could make a video on that?
    Thanks.

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  11 років тому

      Let y=(x-3) so by substitution you get 6y^2+13y+5 which factorises to
      (3y+5)(2y+1) Now substitute back in y=(x-3)
      to give [3(x-3)+5][2(x-3)+1]
      clean up inside each bracket to then give [3x-4][2x-5]
      Hope that helps?
