Write the first coefficient below the line.. Multiply the r-value by the number below the line, and write the product below the next coefficient. 3. Write the sum (not the difference) below the line. Multiply r by the number below the line and write the product below the next coefficient. 4. Write the sum (not the difference) below the line. Repeat steps 1-3 as needed.

9.4 Solving by Factoring (grouping) Elaborate Activity 1. Write the standard form for a quadratic trinomial:. Given the trinomial, x 5x 1, we will express this as the product of two binomials. Identify A Identify B Identify C Our job will be easier if we can rewrite this trinomial as a polynomial with 4 terms. Then we can group the terms in pairs and use GCF factoring!!!!! 3. When we multiply the coefficients of the first and last terms, AC, we have our target product. x 5x 1 times -1 equals -4 AC, our target product =. Our target sum, the coefficient of the middle term, B, =. We need to find factors of the target product, -4, that add to equal the target sum, -5, in order to begin factoring our trinomial. 4. Using, x 5x 1, find the pair of factors for AC, our target product that we need for our target sum, -5. Since AC = -4, let s check some factors and their sums in the following chart: Factors of -4 Sum -1 4 3-1 -3 8-4 6-6 4-8 3-1 -10-4 1 Highlight the one which has the target product of -4 and target sum of -5. 15 Page 1 of 4
5. Let s rewrite x 5x 1 as a polynomial with 4 terms, using our target factors of 8 and 3. x 5x 1 Highlight what changed. x 8x + 3x 1 We have only changed the form of the original trinomial but the polynomial is the same. 6. x 5x 1 x 8x + 3x 1 By grouping (circle the first two and second two together) these 4 terms in pairs, we can factor out the GCF from each pair. x 8x + 3x 1 (x 4) + (x 4) Write these two terms as one binomial factor, (x + 3) and the binomial (x 4) is our other factor. So, x 5x 1 in factored form, is (x + 3)(x 4). Check by multiplying (x + 3)(x 4) to see if the result is x 5x 1. 7. Let s factor another trinomial. Factor 4x 9x + 5, using the AC method we just learned. AC, our target product =. Our target sum =. We need to find factors of the target product, that add to equal the target sum,. Factors of 0 Addition of Factors Sum of Factors Result? Rewrite 4x 9x + 5 as a polynomial with 4 terms, using our target factors of and. So, 4x 9x + 5 in factored form, is ( )( ). 8.
