Factoring Polynomials

Factor the Polynomial

x³ - x² + 2x - 2

• (x² + 2) (x - 1)

• (x² - 2) (x + 1)

• (x² + 1) (x - 2)

• (x² - 1) (x + 2)

Factor the Polynomial

5x² + 45x

• 5x (x + 9)

• x (5x + 9)

• x (5x + 45)

• 9x (x + 5)

Factor the polynomial. 
x²-4x-32

• (x-8)(x+4)
• (x-4)(x-32)
• (x+3)(x-4)
• x+2)(x+5)

Factor
x² - 13x + 36

• A
  (x + 9)(x + 4)
• B
  (x - 9)(x - 4)
• C
  (x + 9)(x - 4)
• D
  (x - 9)(x + 4)

Factor k²+7k+10

• (k+2)(k+5)
• (k-2)(k-5)
• (k+10)(k+4)
• (k+2)(k-5)

Factor
n² + 16n + 63

• (n-7)(n+4)
• (n+7)(n-9)
• (n-3)(n-10)
• (n+7)(n+9)

Factor Completely: x² - 36

*hint: what is the middle term's value if there is no coefficient of x?

• (x + 9)(x - 4)
• (x - 6)(x - 6)
• (x - 9)(x + 4)
• (x + 6)(x - 6)
