Factoring is a mathematical process used to decompose an algebraic expression into a product of smaller expressions. The bury method is a specific technique used for factoring quadratic expressions, which are expressions of the form ax + bx + c.
The bury method is based on the principle that any quadratic expression can be factored into two binomial factors, each of the form (x + p)(x + q), where p and q are constants. To factor a quadratic expression using the bury method, we first find two numbers, p and q, such that:
