    The factors of \[{{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}}+\mathbf{2xy}-\mathbf{15}{{\mathbf{y}}^{\mathbf{2}}}\]are

    A)  \[\left( x-5y \right)\left( x-3y \right)\]         

    B)  \[\left( x+5y \right)\left( x+3y \right)\]

    C)  \[\left( x-5y \right)\left( x+3y \right)\]          

    D)  \[\left( x+5y \right)\left( x-3y \right)\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    (d): \[{{x}^{2}}+2xy-5{{y}^{2}}\] Considered it as a quadratic in x, Then roots= \[=\frac{-2y\pm \sqrt{4{{y}^{2}}-4\times 1\times (-15{{y}^{2}})}}{2}\] \[=\frac{-2y\pm \sqrt{64{{y}^{2}}}}{2}\] \[=\frac{-2y\pm 8y}{2}=-\,5y\,\,\text{or}\,\,3y\] \[\Rightarrow \left( x-3y \right)\left( x+5y \right).\]
