6.2 Factoring Trinomials – x2 + bx + c
6.2 Factoring Trinomials – x2 + bx + c
• When factoring a polynomial in the form of x2 + bx + c, we will be reversing the FOIL process
• So, let's review FOIL
FOIL
• F (x + m) (x + n) = x2
FOIL
• F (x + m) (x + n) = x2
• O (x + m) ( x + n) = nx
FOIL
• F (x + m) (x + n) = x2
• O (x + m) ( x + n) = nx• I (x + m) (x + n) = mx
FOIL
• F (x + m) (x + n) = x2
• O (x + m) ( x + n) = nx• I (x + m) (x + n) = mx• L (x + m) (x + n) = nm
FOIL
• F (x + m) (x + n) = x2
• O (x + m) ( x + n) = nx• I (x + m) (x + n) = mx• L (x + m) (x + n) = nm
x2 + nx + mx + nm
FOIL
• Can we combine like terms? Yes, O and I in FOIL give us like terms
• x2 + nx + mx + nm
What is the common factor?• X
Pull out the x:• x2 + (n + m)x + nm
Factoring
Let's
• Standard Form:
x2 + bx + c
Compare
• (x +n)(x + m): x2 + (n + m)x + nm
Factoring
• Based on the Standard Form: x2 + bx + c, what is the b in the polynomial we found:
x2 + (n + m)x +nm
b = (n + m)
Factoring
• Based on the Standard Form: x2 + bx + c, what is the c in the polynomial we found:
x2 + (n + m)x +nm
c = nm
6.2 Factoring Trinomials – x2 + bx + c
• To factor the trinomial x2 + bx + c, find two numbers m and n that satisfy the following conditions:
m * n = c m + n = b
Such that x2 + bx + c = (x + m)(x + n)
6.2 Factoring Trinomials – x2 + bx + c
• Remember that (m + n)x was the sum of the O and I in FOIL
and nm was the L in FOIL.
