Factoring Polynomial

Factor out the GCF:
9x⁴y - 24x²

• 9x²y(x² - 3)
• 3x³(3xy - 8)
• 3x²(3x²y - 8)
• x²(9x²y - 24)

Factor  by grouping:
20x² - 16x - 25x +20

• (20x - 5)(x - 4)
• (4x + 5)(5x + 4)
• (5x - 4)(4x - 5)
• (5x + 4)(4x - 5)

Factor the trinomial:
x² - 4x - 12 

• (x - 6)(x - 2)
• (x - 8)(x + 2)
• (x - 6)(x + 2)
• (x + 6)(x - 2)

Factor the trinomial:
x² - 6x + 9 

• (x + 3)²
• (x + 3)(x - 3)
• (x - 9)(x - 3)
• (x - 3)²
