Factoring The Polynomials

Factor out the GCF:
10x³ - 15x

• x(10x² - 15)

• 5x(2x² - 3)

• 5(2x³ - 3x)

• 5x²(10x - 3)

Factor using GCF or monomial factoring:

x² - 5x

• 1(x - 5)

• x(x - 5x)

• x(x - 5)

• x²(1 - 5)

Factor by GCF:

6m² + 16m

• 2(3m² + 8m)

• 2m(3m + 8)

• 2m(3m - 8m)

• Prime

Factor:

56a³ - 8a

• 8a²(56a³ - 8a)

• 8a(7a² - 1)

• 8a(7a³ - a)

• 8a²(35a² - a)

The GCF of 2x²-4x+8 is (a)   .

• 2x

• 2

• x

• 1

Match each polynomial to its factored form:

• (x-4)(x+1)

• (x+4)(x-1)

• (x+4)(x+1)

• (x-4)(x-1)

If a = 4x and b = 5, write a SUM of Cubes Problem that would need to then be factored.
