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
81m² - 1 

• not factorable
• (m-9)(m+9)
• 9m(9m-1)
• (9m-1)(9m+1)

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

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