Solve by Factoring with Leading Number

Zoey, Anaya, and Isabella are trying to solve a math problem. They need to factorize the expression 3x^2 - 10x + 8. Can you help them?

• (3x-2)(x-4)

• (3x-4)(x-2)

• (3x+4)(x-2)

• (3x+2)(x-4)

Aarav, Henry, and Chloe are working on a math problem. They need to factor a trinomial where the leading coefficient is greater than 1. How should they approach this problem?

• They should divide the trinomial by the leading coefficient.

• They should use the FOIL method.

• They should subtract the constant term from the trinomial.

• They should use the AC method or trial and error.

Harper is trying to solve a math problem. She needs to factorize the expression 2x^2 + 7x + 3. Can you help her?

• (2x + 3)(x + 1)

• (2x + 1)(x + 3)

• (2x + 2)(x + 1)

• (2x - 1)(x - 3)

To express a polynomial as the product of monomials and polynomials or the process by which one tries to make a mathematical expression look like a multiplication problem. Basically, it reverses the multiplication process.
