Find two numbers (n, m) such that the product is equal to -15 (the product found in step 1) and the sum is equal to − 2(thecoeᡮ냣cientofour x term). In other words: −15 = m · n and n + m = −2. Factors of −15: −1, 15 | 1, −15 | − 3, 5 | 3, −5.

Factoring Trinomials ax 2 + bx + c by the ac-Method. We know that multiplying two binomials by the FOIL method results in a four-term polynomial and in many cases it can be combined into a three-term polynomial. For example: (x + 3)(2x + 1) = 2x2 + 1x + 6x + 3 = 2x2 + 7x + 3.
Factor. Objective: Find the greatest common factor of a polynomial and factor it out of the expression. The inverse of multiplying polynomials together is factoring polynomials. There are many benefits of a polynomial being factored. We use factored polynomials to help us solve equations, learn behaviors of graphs, work with fractions and more.
The ac-method for factoring trinomials is illustrated in Example 1. Before we begin, however, keep these two important guidelines in mind. • For any factoring problem you encounter, always factor out the GCF from all terms first. • To factor a trinomial, write the trinomial in the form .
