Factoring a trinomial

Steps for factoring a trinomial Match the steps for the correct order of factoring a trinomialYou may use your notes from the videos. Step 1 Find ac (Multiply a times c) Step 2 Using the X method, determine the factors of ac that add up to b. Step 3 Divide up the middle term b into the 2 factors Step 4 Factor by grouping to find the final factors Step 5 Check answer by multiplying Factoring a Trinomial Determine which factors go with each trinomial. Click on the factor and choose which trinomial it belongs to. x2 + 5x + 6 (x+3) (x+2) x2+7x + 6 (x+1) (x+6) x2 +3x -10 (x-2) (x+5) Factor the trinomial x2 + 9x + 20 Factor the trinomial x2 - x - 30 Factor the trinomial x2 - 8x + 12 Match one factor to each trinomial You must factor each trinomial and choose one of the factors for that trinomial.The ^ sign means squared 2x^2 + 9x +10 (2x + 5) 3x^2 + 8x + 5 (x+1) 2x^2 - 3x -9 (2x +3)
