Factor the GCF of Trinomials

What is the GCF of the trinomial?
3x² - 9x -120

• 3

• 2

• 6

• 9

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

What is the GCF of the highlighted row:

• 2x

• x

• 6

• 3

4x²yz² - 14xy²z

• xyz(4xz - 14y)

• 2xyz(2xz - 7y)

• 2xyz(2xy - 7z)

• xyz(4xy - 14z)

Factor the Polynomial *Start with a GCF

• 3(3x² - 5) (7x + 6)

• 3(3x² + 5) (7x - 6)

• 5(3x² - 5) (7x + 6)

• 5(3x² + 5) (7x - 6)
