I. ACTIVITY
A. TRY AND TRY!!!!!
Give polynomials whose numerical coefficient of the leading term is not 1. Factor this using trial and
error method. Allow the students to stress out the disadvantages that they have encountered in using this
technique.
B. WE HAVE!!!!
G. FACTORING BY GROUPING
ax + ay + cx + cy = (ax + cx) (ay + cy)
= x(a + c) + y(a + c)
= (a + c) (x + y)
Factoring by grouping can be facilitated by grouping together terms that have common factors, then factor.
Examples
Factor each completely.
1. 8mt – 12at – 10mh + 15ah
2. 18lv + 6le + 240v + 80e
3. m2 – 4m + mn – 4n
4. 12a3 – 9a2 + 20a – 15
III. ASSESSMENT
A. APPLICATION
Factor the following.
1. 7m2 + 6m – 1
2. 3k2 – 10k + 7
3. 5x2 – 14x + 8
4. 4wt + 2wh + 6it + 3ih
5. 15te – 12he + 10ty – 8hy
B. ASSIGNMENT
B.1 ENRICHMENT
Factor the following.
1. 2x2 – 3x – 5
2. 3n2 + 10n – 8
3. 10ti – 8ts – 15hi + 12hs
4. 88fo + 16ro – 99fm – 18rm
