Week 3 discussion
To Receive Discussion Board Credit this Week:
Identify what Factoring Type, A – E, will be used to Factor each of the given Polynomials #’s 1-5 below:
·
. Remove the GCF
A. Easy Trinomial,
B. Factor By Grouping,
C. Difference of Two Squares,
D. Double Trouble Trial and Error
Explain how to factor EACH polynomial using complete sentences illustrating your understanding.
Example: The polynomial is an Easy Trinomial.
The factors of -48 that add to give me -2 would be 6 and -8.
Since trinomials factor into 2 binomials the factored form would be (m+6)(m-8)
Use the Factoring Flow Chart posted in week 3 to help you.
1. 25×4 9
2. 9xy + 12yz 3y
3. x3 + x2 4x 4
4. x2 6x + 8
5. 3×2 + 11x + 6
