Factoring AM Method

Factor the trinomial.

• (3n+2)(n-2)

• (3n-2)(n-2)

• (3n-2)(n+2)

• (3n+2)(n+2)

Factor the trinomial.

• (2v-1)(v+5)

• (2v+1)(v-5)

• (2v-1)(v-5)

• (2v+1)(v+5)

Factor completely.
5x² - 13x + 6

• (x - 3)(5x - 2)

• (5x - 3)(x - 2)

• 5(x - 3)(x + 2)

• Not factorable

Factor:
6k² - 19k - 7

• (k + 7)(6k - 1)

• (2k + 1)(3k - 7)

• (3k - 1)(2k - 7)

• (3k + 1)(2k - 7)

When using the slide-divide-slide method to factor, what do you do if you end up with a fraction in one of your binomials after dividing by a?

• slide the denominator up to become the coefficient of the variable

• make it a decimal instead

• panic, I am afraid of fractions

• just leave it, fractions are your friends

What is the first step when factoring polynomials?

• Find the GCF

• List all the terms

• Make the X and fill in the top and bottom

• Multiply a and c

Solve for X:

(x-5)(x+6)=0

• 5 and 0

• -5 and -6

• -5 and 6

• 5 and -6

x² - 25

• ( x + 5 ) ( x - 5 )

• ( x - 5 ) ( x - 5 )

• ( x + 5 ) ( x + 5 )

One of the most common method in Factoring Trinomials?

• FIOL

• FOIL

• FOEL

• FOUL

Factor the trinomial: x^2 + 5x + 6

• (x + 2)(x + 3)

• (x + 4)(x + 2)

• (x + 1)(x + 6)

• (x + 5)(x + 1)
