Analyzing Workflow Coefficients in Factoring
A production supervisor is factoring a workflow efficiency expression, x^2 + 15xy + 54y^2, into the binomial form (x + my)(x + ny). Based on the factoring rules for this type of trinomial, state the numerical value that the sum of the coefficients m and n must equal, and identify which term in the original expression provides this value.
