Factoring Trinomials When the Leading Coefficient Is 1

Oliver, Ishaan, and Harper are working on a math problem. They are trying to break down a trinomial equation into simpler parts. What is this process called?

• Multiplying three binomials

• Factoring a binomial into three trinomials

• Factoring a trinomial into two binomials

• Dividing a trinomial by a binomial

x² + 5x + 6

• (x - 3) (x - 2)

• (x + 3) (x - 2)

• (x + 3) (x + 2)

• (x + 2) (x - 3)

x² + 8x - 20

• (x + 10) (x - 2)

• (x + 10) (x + 2)

• (x + 5) (x + 4)

• (x + 5) (x - 4)

x² - 9x + 18

• (x + 6) (x + 3)

• (x - 6) (x - 3)

• (x - 2) (x - 9)

• (x + 2) (x + 9)

x² - 9x - 22

• (x + 11) (x - 2)

• (x + 2) (x - 11)

• (x - 11) (x - 2)

• (x + 2) (x + 11)

x² + 6x - 27

• (x + 3) (x - 9)

• (x + 9) (x + 3)

• (x - 9) (x - 3)

• (x + 9) (x - 3)
