Find the missing factor x(y+6)-5(y+6)( ) (y+6)

We are given the equation:

x (y + 6) – 5 (y + 6)                           ---> 1

We are to look for the missing factor in the equation: (_) (y + 6) from the given values.

Knowing the rules of the polynomial multiplicity, we can have an idea that the given equation can also be written in the form of:

(x – 5) (y + 6)                                      ---> 2

wherein the whole factor (y + 6) was simply distributed to the values in the factor (x – 5). To prove that equations 1 and 2 are equal:

x (y + 6) – 5 (y + 6) = (x – 5) (y + 6)

Expanding:         

x y + 6 x - 5 y – 30 = x y + 6 x – 5 y – 30     (EQUAL!)

Therefore our missing factor is:

(x – 5)
