Factoring the GCF from Polynomials

Factor using GCF or monomial factoring:

2x + 18

• 2(x + 9)

• 2(x + 8)

• 2(2x + 9)

• cannot be factored

WHAT IS THE FACTOR OF 9X+45?

• 9X

• 9X(1+ 5)

• 9(X+5)

• 9(X+45)

What is the factor of 6x²-24x?

• 6x(x-4)

• 6x(x-24x)

• 6(x²-24x)

• 6x²(1-24x)

Factor:
10x + 15

• 100x + 150

• 10(x + 5)

• 1(10x + 15)

• 5(2x + 3)

Factor
12x + 9

• 3(4x + 3)

• x(12+9)

• 3(4x - 3)

• not factorable

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)

What is the first question you ask yourself when factoring a polynomial? 

• What color nail polish should I wear tomorrow? 

• Is there a GCF? 

• How many ceiling tiles are in here? 

• Why do I have to learn this?!?!?!

Factor by using GCF:
8n + 2n

• 2n(4-1)

• 2n(4 + 1)

• n(8n+2)

• 2n(6n+0)

Factor the GCF
10x² + 15x-5

• 25(10x³+45x-15)

• 5(2x³ + 3x²-x)

• x(10x³+15x-5)

• 5(2x²+3x-1)
