Factoring from Standard Form

Fill in the blank: The process of changing the sum to a product is called _____.

• Area Model

• Standard Form

• Factoring

• Quadratics

• (5x+4)(5x+4)

• (5x-4)(5x+4)

• Not factorable.

• (5x+8)(5x+8)

• (5x-8)(5x+8)

If the quadratic has THREE TERMS, what step is next?

• Factor using Area Model and X, if possible.

• Ask: Is it a Difference of Two Squares?

• The work is done.

• Write the area as a sum.

• Not Factorable

Given the real zeros -3 and 4, write the factors and multiply to put in standard form.

• Not Factorable

Factor completely: 2x²+22x+60

• (2x+10)(x+6)

• (x+5)(x+6)

• 2(x+1)(x+30)

• 2(x+5)(x+6)

Solve by factoring: x² - 9x + 20 = 0

• x = -4 and x = -5

• x = 20 and x = -9

• x = 4 and x = 5

• x = -4 and x = 5
