Identify a possible equation.

Factor

3a² + 4a + 1

• (7a-10)(a-8)

• Not factorable

• (3a+1)(a+1)

• (3a-1)(a-1)

Which does not describe the zeros of a polynomial?

• Where a graph crosses the x-axis

• Also known as the roots

• Where x=0

• The solution when a factor is set equal to zero

Factor using GCF or monomial factoring:

2n²-8n³

• 2n²(n-4n²)

• 2n²(1-4n)

• 2n³(10-8n²)

• 3n(1-4n)

Factor out the GCF:
10x³ - 15x

• x(10x² - 15)

• 5x(2x² - 3)

• 5(2x³ - 3x)

• 5x²(10x - 3)

Factor using GCF or monomial factoring:

2x + 18

• 2(x + 9)

• 2(x + 8)

• 2(2x + 9)

• cannot be factored
