Factoring All Forms

Factor completely:

3x² + 18x +15

Hint: Factor GCF first.

• 3(x² + 5x + 5)

• (x + 5)(x + 1)

• 3(x + 5)(x + 1)

• 3(x - 5)(x - 1)

Factor Completely: 5v² - 30v + 40

• (5v - 8)(v - 5)

• (5v + 5)(v - 8)

• 5(v - 4)(v - 2)

• 5(v + 8)(v - 5)

Factor: x² + 24x + 144

• (x + 12)²

• (x + 9)²

• (x + 15)²

• (x + 13)²

x² - 9

• (x + 3) (x - 3)

• (x - 3) (x - 3)

• (x + 3) (x - 6)
