discussion week 3 Mat1033

• Week 3      discussion 
• To Receive Discussion Board Credit this      Week:
• Identify what Factoring Type, A -      E,  will be used to Factor each of the given Polynomials #'s 1-5      below:

·  

. Remove the GCF

A. Easy Trinomial,

B. Factor By Grouping,

C. Difference of Two Squares,

D. Double Trouble Trial and Error

• Explain how to factor EACH      polynomial using complete sentences illustrating      your understanding.
  • Example: The       polynomial      is an Easy Trinomial.
  • The factors of -48 that add to give me       -2 would be 6 and -8.
  • Since trinomials factor into 2       binomials the factored form would be (m+6)(m-8)
• Use the Factoring Flow Chart posted in      week 3 to help you.

1.  25x4 – 9                           

2.  9xy + 12yz – 3y                    

3.  x3 + x2 – 4x – 4                   

4.  x2 – 6x + 8 

5.  3x2 + 11x + 6
