5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomialFactors-numbers (or variables) that you
multiply together to get a product
The factors of 30 = 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30
To factor something is the opposite of multiplying
Multiplying 3(x+2) = 3x + 6 Factoring 3x + 6 = 3(x+2)

5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomial
GCF Greatest Common Factora number that will divide evenly into two or more numbers; the largest one you can find.
Find GCF of 48 and 60 is 12Factors of 48=1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48Factors of 60=1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60

5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomialWe don’t want to have to list all the factors
every time we need to find a gcf. Sometimes we can tell by looking at the numbers. GCF of 12 and 16 is 4
If not use the prime factorization method:Make a factor tree for each number. Once
you have all primes, put your prime factorization into exponent form. Compare the two prime factorizations and see what they have in common. (Do 48 and 60 on board)
Now find the GCF of 18 and 24

5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomialYou can apply this same idea to terms:
GCF of 18y2, 15y3, and 27y5
Is 3y2
GCF of 2(x+y) and 3x(x+y)Is (x+y)
5
5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomialTo factor a monomial from a polynomial, 1)Find GCF of all the terms2) Put GCF out front3) Use the dist property in reverse to factor
out the GCF from EACH term
If you multiply it back in, you should get what you started with

5.1 Factoring a monomial from a polynomial15x – 20 = 5 (3x – 4)
6y2 + 9y5 = 3y2 (2 + 3y3)
35x2 – 25x + 5 = 5 (7x2 - 5x +1)
2x(x - 3) – 5(x - 3) = (x - 3) (2x - 5)

5.3 Factoring Trinomials This is getting ahead of us, but so you will
understand where this fits in—These are the steps we use to factor
something completely1) Check for a GCF (you learned in 5.1)2) Count the terms
trinomial-FOIL backwards (5.3 and 5.4)binomial-DOS or sum/diff of cubes4 terms-grouping
8
X2 + 7x + 12GCF? No trinomial? Yes FOIL backwards:X2 + 7x + 12 = ( )( )FOIL start with F – to get X2 you need x,xX2 + 7x + 12 = (x )(x )FOIL now do L – to get 12, you could use any two
factors of 12 (1,12 or 2,6 or 3,4)which pair will add or subtract to 7?
1,12 = 13 or 112,6 = 8 or 43,4 = 7 or 1
9
So 3,4 will workX2 + 7x + 12 = (x 3)(x 4)Now consider the signs:If the constant (12) is positive, both factors will
have the same sign-both (+) or both (-)If the constant (12) is negative, the two factors will
have different signs; one positive and one negative
In this case, in order to get a (+)12, we need both signs to be the same. In addition, we want a (+) 7 in the middle so we would choose both positives
X2 + 7x + 12 = (x + 3)(x + 4)
10
X2 + 7x + 12 = (x + 3)(x + 4)Lastly, check your smile linesAssuming you chose wisely, you shouldn’t
need to check x times x. it should equal x2;You shouldn’t need to check 3 times 4. it
should equal 12. But double check the middle term
X2 + 7x + 12 = (x + 3)(x + 4)Can you see the 3x and 4x that will combine
for a 7x in the middle?
11
5.3 Factoring Trinomials
Factor X2 + x - 6 = (x + 3)(x - 2)start with Fthen L; consider 1,6 or 2,3which will give you a 1 in the middle?2,3 if we subtract themsince the constant is negative, we want our signs to be a plus and a minus
12
5.3 Factoring Trinomials
Factor X2 + 2x - 24 = (x + 6)(x - 4)F: x and xL: 1,24 or 2,12 or 3,8 or 4,6Signs: -24 means you need a (+) (-)Arrange them so the two will be (+)
13
Trinomial signs binomial signs ax2 + bx + c ( + )( + )
ax2 - bx + c ( - )( - )
ax2 - bx - c ( + )( - ) and OR
ax2 + bx - c ( - )( + )
14
5.3 Factoring TrinomialsFactor 2X2 + 2x - 12 Check for GCF first ALWAYS!!!GCF=2 so 2(X2 + x – 6)F: x and xL: 1,2 or 2,3Signs: -6 means you need a (+) (-)Arrange them so the one will be (+)2X2 + 2x - 12 2(X2 + x – 6)2(x + 3)(x - 2)
15
5.4 Factoring Trinomials when a=1The same method applies here as in 5.3 but
you will notice that the coefficient on the x2
term will impact our middle term so finding the pair of factors becomes more challenging. You will often have to do more trial and error on paper to find the set that works. There are two approaches:
Guess and Check which follows immediately
Grouping which comes after guess/check
16
2x2 + 13x + 15 = start with F, then L, then signs, check MT
(2x + 15)(1x + 1)15x + 2x =17x NO
(2x + 1)(1x + 15)1x + 30x = 31x NO
(2x + 5)(1x + 3)5x + 6x = 11x NO
(2x + 3)(1x + 5)3x + 10x = 13x YES!
Guess and Check
17
2x2 + 7x + 6 = for 6, consider 1,6 and 2,3
(2x + 6)(1x + 1)
(2x + 1)(1x + 6)
(2x + 2)(1x + 3)
(2x + 3)(1x + 2)4x + 3x = 7x YES!
18
3x2 + 20x + 12 = for 12, consider 1,12 and 2,6 and 3,4
(3x + 1)(1x + 12) (3x + 12)(1x + 1) (3x + 2)(1x + 6) (3x + 6)(1x + 2) (3x + 3)(1x + 4) (3x + 4)(1x + 3)
19
5x2 - 7x - 6 = for 6, consider 1,6 and 2,3
(5x 1)(1x 6)
(5x 6)(1x 1)
(5x 2)(1x 3)
(5x + 3)(1x - 2)
20
8x2 + 33x + 4 = for 4, consider 1,4 and 2,2 for 8, consider 1,8 and 2,4 (8x + 4)(1x + 1) (8x + 1)(1x + 4) (8x + 2)(1x + 2)
(2x + 1)(4x + 4) (2x + 4)(4x + 1) (2x + 2)(4x + 2)
21
Grouping2x2 + 13x + 15 where a=2 b=13 and c=15Take a times c so 2(15) = 301) Find two numbers whose product is ac
and whose sum is bIn this case, two numbers whose product is
30 and whose sum is 13Consider the factors of 30: 1,30 and 2,15 and 3,10, and 5,63,10 add to 13
22
2) Rewrite the middle term as the sum or difference of the two factors
2x2 + 13x + 15 2x2 + 10x + 3x + 15 3) Factor the new expression by
grouping two and two2x2 + 10x + 3x + 15 GCF of the 1st two? 2x of the 2nd two? 32x (x+5) + 3 (x+5)Pull the common factor to the front now(x+5) (2x+3) DONE!

5.5 Special formulasRecall the factoring process1) Check for a GCF (you learned in 5.1)2) Count the terms
trinomial-FOIL backwards (5.3 and 5.4)binomial-DOS or sum/diff of cubes(5.5)4 terms-grouping
28
Difference of squaresDOS always involves perfect square
numbers: like 1,4,9,16, 25, 36, 49, 64, etc.It is always “something squared minus
something squared”a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a - b)x2 – 16 = x2 – 42 = (x + 4)(x - 4)25x2 – 4 = (5x)2 –(2)2 = (5x + 2)(5x - 2)36x2 – 49y2 = (6x)2 –(7y)2=(6x + 7y)(6x – 7y)“sum of squares” are always prime.
29
Difference of cubes/Sum of cubesDOC/SOC always involves perfect cube
numbers: like 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, etc.
It is always “something cubed plus/minus something cubed”
a3 – b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2)a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 - ab + b2)
30
Difference of cubes
a3 – b3 = (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2)
y3 – 125 = y3 –53 = (y - 5)(y2 + y(5) + 52)(y - 5)(y2 + 5y + 25)
31
Sum of cubes
a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 - ab + b2)
8p3 + k3 = (2p)3 +(k)3 = (2p + k)((2p)2 - (2p)(k) + k2)(2p + k)(4p2 - 2pk + k2)
