GCSE Maths Practice: factorising-expressions

Question 4 of 10

This question tests factorisation of quadratics using the AC method (leading coefficient not 1).

‹ ›

\( \text{Factorise the expression } 2x^2 + 9x + 10 \)

Choose one option:

\( (2x + 5)(x + 2) \) \( (2x + 2)(x + 5) \) \( (2x + 1)(x + 10) \) \( 2(x + 5)(x + 2) \)

Always multiply back the factors to ensure correctness.

Use the AC method to split the middle term for quadratics where the leading coefficient is not 1.
