  1. Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Topic 6.6.2

  2. Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c California Standard: 11.0 Students apply basic factoring techniques to second-and simple third-degree polynomials. These techniques include finding a common factor for all terms in a polynomial,recognizing the difference of two squares, and recognizing perfect squares of binomials. What it means for you: You’ll learn how to factor more complicated quadratic expressions. • Key words: • quadratic • polynomial • factor • trial and error

  3. Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c The method in Topic 6.6.1 for factoring a quadratic expression only works if the x2-term has a coefficient of 1. It’s a little more complicated when the x2-coefficient (a) isn’t 1 — but only a little.

  4. ax2 + abx + aca(x2 + bx + c) Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c You Can Take Out a Common Factor from Each Term If you see a common factor in each term, such as a number or a variable, take it out first.

Solution 3x2 + 15x + 18 = 3(x2 + 5x + 6) Take out the common factor The expression in parentheses can be factored using the method in Topic 6.6.1: = 3(x + 2)(x + 3) But — if the expression in parentheses still has a¹ 1, then the expression will need to be factored using the second method, shown in Example 2. Solution follows…

  8. a = a1a2 a1c2 + a2c1 = b c = c1c2 Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c You Can Factor ax2 + bx + c by Trial and Error If you can’tsee a common factor, then you need to get ax2 + bx + c into the form (a1x + c1)(a2x + c2), where a1 and a2 are factors of a, and c1 and c2 are factors of c. ax2 + bx + c = (a1x + c1)(a2x + c2)

  9. Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Note that if a number is positivethen its two factors will be either both positiveor both negative. If a number is negative, then its two factors will have different signs— one positiveand one negative. These facts give important clues about the signs of c1 and c2.

  10. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 2 Factor 3x2 + 11x + 6. Solution 3x2 + 11x + 6 Write down pairs of factors of a = 3: a1 = 1and a2 = 3 Write down pairs of factors of c = 6: c1 = 1and c2 = 6,c1 = 2and c2 = 3 Now find the combination of factors that gives a1c2 + a2c1 = 11. Put the x-terms into parentheses first, with the pair of coefficients 3 and 1: (3x )(x ). Now try all the pairs of c1 and c2 in the parentheses and find the possible values of a1c2 + a2c1 (and a1c2 – a2c1)… Solution continues… Solution follows…

  11. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 2 Factor 3x2 + 11x + 6. Solution (continued) (3x 1)(x 6) multiplies to give 18x and x, which add/subtract to give 19x or 17x. (3x 6)(x 1) multiplies to give 3x and 6x, which add/subtract to give 9x or 3x. (3x 2)(x 3) multiplies to give 9x and 2x, which add/subtract to give 11x or 7x. (3x 3)(x 2) multiplies to give 6x and 3x, which add/subtract to give 9x or 3x. So (3x 2)(x 3) is the combination that gives 11x (so b = 11). Solution continues…

  12. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 2 Factor 3x2 + 11x + 6. Solution (continued) Now fill in the + / – signs. Both c1 and c2 are positive (since c = c1c2 and b = a1c2 + a2c1 are positive), so the final factors are (3x + 2)(x + 3). Check by expanding the parentheses to make sure they give the original equation: (3x + 2)(x + 3) = 3x2 + 9x + 2x + 6 = 3x2 + 11x + 6 That’s what you started with, so (3x + 2)(x + 3) is the correct factorization.

  30. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 4 Factor 3x2 + 11x + 6. Solution Here c = 6, which is positive — so its factors c1 and c2 are either both positive or both negative. But since b = 11 is positive, you can tell that c1 and c2 must be positive (so that a1c2 + a2c1 is positive). Solution follows…

  31. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 5 Factor 3x2 – 11x + 6. Solution Here c is also positive, so c1 and c2 are either both positive or both negative. But since b = –11 is negative, you can tell that c1 and c2 must be negative (so that a1c2 + a2c1 is negative). Solution follows…

  32. Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Example 6 Factor 6x2 + 5x – 6. Solution In this expression, c is negative, so one of c1 and c2 must be positive and the other must be negative. So instead of looking at both the sums and differences of all the different combinations a1c2 and a2c1, you only need to look at the differences. Solution follows…

To add to get n, 3n must be positive and 2n negative. So 2n2 + n – 3 = (2n + 3)(n – 1) c is negative, so one of c1 and c2 must be positive and the other negative(2x 1)(x 3) multiply to 6x and x. To add to get –5x, x must be positive and 6x negative. So 2x2 – 5x – 3 = (2x + 1)(x – 3) b and c are positive, so c1 and c2 must both be positive.(4a 1)(a 1) multiply to 4a and a and add to 5a(2a 1)(2a 1) multiply to 2a and 2a and add to 4aSo 4a2 + 4a + 1 = (2a + 1)(2a + 1) Solution follows…

To add to get t, 4t must be positive and 3t negative. So 4t2 + t – 3 = (4t – 3)(t + 1) Solution follows…

Lesson 1.1.1 Topic 6.6.2 Factoring Quadratics — ax² + bx + c Guided Practice Factor each expression. 65. 5x2 – x – 18 66. 9x2 – 6x + 1 67. 6t2 + t – 1 68. b2 + 10b + 21 c is negative, so one of c1 and c2 must be positive and the other negative(5x 9)(x 2) multiply to 10x and 9x. To add to get –x, 9x must be positive and 10x negative. So 5x2 – x – 18 = (5x + 9)(x – 2) b is negative and c is positive, so c1 and c2 must both be negative.(3x 1)(3x 1) multiply to 3x and 3x and add to 6x. So 9x2 – 6x + 1 = (3x – 1)2 c is negative, so one of c1 and c2 must be positive and the other negative(3t 1)(2t 1) multiply to 3t and 2t. To add to get t, 3t must be positive and 2t negative. So 6t2 + t – 1 = (3t – 1)(2t + 1) b and c are positive, so c1 and c2 must both be positive. (b 7)(b 3) multiply to 3b and 7b and add to 10b.So 9y2 + 6y + 1 = (3y + 1)2 Solution follows…
