Should this not have an equals sign in it?

r2+3r-54 is simplified enough. If you want the binomial, let's try it out.

 

we know that they both have to start with r, so the equation will start out as (r+n1)(r+n2)

 

Let's find two number that when they are added together equal 3 and when are multiplied together equal -54.

 

Let's try 9 and -6.

 

9+-6=3

 

9*(-6)=-54

 

So, the binomial is (r+9)(r-6)
