What is the first question you ask yourself when factoring a polynomial? 

• How many terms does it have? 
• Is there a GCF? 
• What strategy should I use? 
• Why do I have to learn this?!?!?!

Factor Completely: 
2c² + 4c - 84
Hint: Factor GCF first.

• (c-6)(2c+14)
• (c+7)(2x-12)
• (c-4)(2c+21)
• 2(c+7)(c-6)

Factor Completely: 
3x² + 18x +15
Hint: Factor GCF first.

• 3(x² + 6x + 5)
• (x + 5)(x + 1)
• 3(x + 5)(x + 1)
• Prime

Factor
