I'm Thinking Factoring

Factor completely: x²-6x+8

• (x-2)(x-4)
• (x-1)(x-8)
• (x+2)(x+4)
• (x+1)(x+8)

Factor completely: x²-13x+40

• (x-5)(x-8)
• (x+5)(x+8)
• (x-4)(x-10)
• (x-2)(x-20)

If a trinomial, ax² +or- bx + c, has a positive "c" value, what do you know about the signs in its binomial factors?

• Both signs are positive.
• Both signs are negative. 
• One sign is positive and one is negative.
• The signs are the same, both + or both -

What are the factors of
25x² - 81?

• (5x - 9)(5x + 9)
• (5x - 9)(5x - 9)
• (5x + 9)(5x + 9)
• Cannot be factored

What is the first step when factoring polynomials?

• Find the GCF
• List all the terms
• Make a triangle
• Write the answer

Factor completely.
k² -2k - 24

• (k+4)(k-6)
• (k+4)(k+6)
• (k+6)(k-1)
• (k-4)(k+6)

Factor
k²+7k+10

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

Factor out the GCF:
10x³ - 15x

• x(10x² - 15)
• 5x(2x² - 3)
• 5(2x³ - 3x)
• 5x²(10x - 3)

Factor out the GCF:
12x + 6

• 6(2x + 1)
• 3(4x + 2)
• 6x(2x + 1)
• 2(6x + 3)

Factor:
x² - 5x - 14

• (x - 2)(x + 3)
• (x - 2)(x + 7)
• (x + 2)(x - 7)
• (x - 2)(x - 3)
