Additionally, notice that the middle term is two times the product of the numbers that are squared: 2 ( x) ( 4) = 8 x . This tells us that the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial, and so we can use the following factoring pattern. a 2 + 2 a b + b 2 = ( a + b) 2. In our case, a = x and b = 4 . We can factor our polynomial as follows: x 2 ...

By trial and error, the possible combinations are: 15 and -1;-1 and 15; 5 and -3;-5 and 3; Our correct combination is – 5 and 3. Therefore; x 2 − 2x – 15 (x -5) (x +3) How to factor trinomials by grouping? We can also factor trinomials by using a method of grouping. Let’s walk through the following steps to factor ax 2 + bx + c where a ...

Because when I you have a quadratic in intercept form (x+a)(x+b) like so, and you factor it (basically meaning multiply it and undo it into slandered form) you get: x^2 + bx + ax + ab. This of course can be combined to: x^2 + (a+b)x + ab. So when you write out a problem like the one he had at. 5:39.

Example: Factor 6x^2 + 19x + 10. 6*10 = 60, so we need to find two numbers that add to 19 and multiply to give 60. These numbers (after some trial and error) are 15 and 4. So split up 19x into 15x + 4x (or 4x + 15x), then factor by grouping: 6x^2 + 19x + 10 = 6x^2 + 15x + 4x + 10.
