Factoring Quadratic Trinomial in The Form: Ax + BX + C Where A 1
Factoring Quadratic Trinomial in The Form: Ax + BX + C Where A 1
2.(3x + 5) (x + 1) 3x2 + 8x + 5
1.Find the product of the leading term and the last term 2k2 –
11k + 12
2. Find the factors of 24k2 whose sum is -11k. (2k 2)
(12) = 24k2
3. Rewrite the trinomial as a four-term expression by replacing the middle
term with the sum of the factors.
(-3k) + (-8k) = -11k
4. Group the terms with common factors. 2k2 – 8k
– 3k + 12
5. Factor the groups using greatest common monomial factor. (2k 2 –
8k) + (-3k + 12)
6. Factor out the common binomial factor and write the remaining factor as
3x + 8x + 5 = (3x ) (5)
2 2
= 15x 2
= (3x) (5x)
= (3x + 3x) + (5+ 5x)
2
= 3x(x + 1) + 5(1 + x)
= (3x + 5) (x + 1)
Factor the following:
1. 2x2 + 7x + 3
2. 3x – 4x – 7
2
3. 3x2 – 8x + 4
A.Factor the following:
1.2x2 + 3x + 1
2.2x2 – 3x – 2
3.25a2 – 10a + 1
B. Answer the following:
4.One of the factors of 11x2 + 23x + 2 is
(x + 2 ). What is the other factor?
2. Find the missing terms: 3x2 – 4x – 15 =
(x - ___)(___ + 5)
