•m2 + 14m + 33
•x2 – 13x – 14
•a2 – 7x – 18
• One of the factors of x2 + 5x – 24 is (x + 8). What is the other factor?
MULTIPLY THE FOLLOWING:
•(2k – 3) (k – 4)
•(3x + 5) (x + 1)
•(3z + 2) (2z – 3)
If (a > 1), there are steps to be followed on how to get its factors.
Factor 2k2 – 11k +12
Follow the steps:
1. Find the product of the leading term and the last term
2k2 – 11k + 12
(2k2) (12) = 24k2
2. Find the factors of 24k2 whose sum is -11k.
(-3k) + (-8k) = -11k
3. Rewrite the trinomial as a four-term expression by replacing the middle term with the sum of
the factors.
2k2 – 8k – 3k + 12
4. Group the terms with common factors.
(2k2 – 8k) + (-3k + 12)
5. Factor the groups using greatest common monomial factor.
2k (k – 4) – 3(k – 4)
6. Factor out the common binomial factor and write the remaining factor as a sum or
difference of the common monomial factors.
(k – 4)(2k – 3)
FACTOR THE FOLLOWING:
1. 2x2 + 7x + 3
2. 3x2 – 4x – 7
3. 3x2 – 8x + 4
• One of the factors of 11x2 + 23x + 2 is (x
+ 2 ). What is the other factor?
• Find the missing terms: 3x2 – 4x – 15 =
(x - ___)(___ + 5)
FACTOR 2X2 – 14K +24
Follow the steps used in factoring general trinomial.
• Step 1:
(2x2) (24) = 48x2
• Step 2:
(-8x) + (-6x) = -14x
• Step 3:
2x2 – 8x – 6x + 24
• Step 4:
(2x2 – 8x) + (– 6x + 24)
• Step 5:
2x(x – 4) – 6(x – 4)
• Step 6:
(2x – 6) (x – 4)
• Step 7:
2(x – 3) (x – 4)
Factor the following:
• 6m2 – 6m – 12
• 6x2 – 20x + 6
• 3x2 + 6x – 24
• 5z2 – 15z – 50
• 4a2 – 28a + 48
