Beginning Factoring

Factor completely.
3x² + 10x - 8

• (3x + 2)(x + 4)

• (7x + 5)(x + 2)

• (3x - 2)(x + 4)

• (7x - 3)(x - 4)

Factor:
x² -15x + 36

• (x - 18)(x + 2)

• (x - 12)(x - 3)

• (x - 12)(x + 3)

• (x + 18)(x - 2)

Factor
x² - 5x - 36

• (x - 4)(x + 9)

• (x - 6)(x + 6)

• (x + 4)(x - 9)

• (x -12)(x + 3)

Factor
n² + 5n - 6

• (n - 2)(n - 3)

• (n - 1)(n + 6)

• (n + 1)(n - 6)

• (n + 2)(n - 3)

Factor completely.
k² -2k - 24

• (k+4)(k-6)

• (k+4)(k+6)

• (k+6)(k-1)

• (k-4)(k+6)

What is the GCF of the highlighted row:

• 4

• -2

• -6

• -3

Factor three terms:
r² +3r - 54

• (r + 27)(r - 2)

• (r-9)(r+6)

• (r+9)(r-6)

Take out the GCF and then apply three terms
3x² + 21x + 18

• 3(x+6)(x+1)

• 3(x +2)(x+3)

• 3(x-1)(x-6)

• There is no GCF

Take out t)he GCF:
x³ - x⁵

• x³( - x²)

• -x³(x-1)(x+1)

• x³(1 - x²)

• -x³(x²-1)

Apply the two term "Difference of Squares":
x² - 49

• (x+7)(x+7)

• (x-7)(x-7)

• (x-7)(x+7)

• (7-x)(7+x)
