7. Example 1 Factor ax 2 + bx + c A. Factor 5x 2 + 27x + 10. In this trinomial, a = 5, b = 27, and c = 10. You need to find two numbers with a sum of 27 and with a product of 5 ● 10 or 50. Make an organized list of the factors of 50 and look for the pair of factors with the sum of 27. 1, 5051 2, 2527 The correct factors are 2 and 25. Factors of 50 Sum of Factors 5x 2 + 27x + 10 = 5x 2 + mx + px + 10Write the pattern. = 5x 2 + 2x + 25x + 10m = 2 and p = 25

8. Example 1 Factor ax 2 + bx + c = (5x 2 + 2x) + (25x + 10)Group terms with common factors. = (x + 5)(5x + 2)Distributive Property = x(5x + 2) + 5(5x + 2)Factor the GCF. Answer: (x + 5)(5x + 2) or (5x + 2)(x + 5)

9. Example 1 Factor ax 2 + bx + c B. Factor 4x 2 + 24x + 32. The GCF of the terms 4x 2, 24x, and 32 is 4. Factor this term first. 4x 2 + 24x + 32 = 4(x 2 + 6x + 8)Distributive Property Now factor x 2 + 6x + 8. Since the lead coefficient is 1, find the two factors of 8 whose sum is 6. 1, 89 2, 46The correct factors are 2 and 4. Factors of 8 Sum of Factors

10. Example 1 Factor ax 2 + bx + c Answer: So, x 2 + 6x + 4 = (x + 2)(x + 4). Thus, the complete factorization of 4x 2 + 24x + 32 is 4(x + 2)(x + 4).

11. Example 1 A. Factor 3x 2 + 26x + 35.

12. Example 1 B. Factor 2x 2 + 14x + 20.

13. Example 2 Factor ax 2 – bx + c Factor 24x 2 – 22x + 3. In this trinomial, a = 24, b = –22, and c = 3. Since b is negative, m + p is negative. Since c is positive, mp is positive. So m and p must both be negative. Therefore, make a list of the negative factors of 24 ● 3 or 72, and look for the pair of factors with the sum of –22. –1, –72–73 –2, –36–38 –3, –24–27 –4, –18–22The correct factors are –4 and –18. Factors of 72 Sum of Factors

14. Example 2 Factor ax 2 – bx + c 24x 2 – 22x + 3 = 24x 2 + mx + px + 3Write the pattern. = (4x – 3)(6x – 1)Distributive Property = 24x 2 – 4x – 18x + 3m = –4 and p = –18 = (24x 2 – 4x) + (–18x + 3)Group terms with common factors. = 4x(6x – 1) + (–3)(6x – 1)Factor the GCF. Answer: (4x – 3)(6x – 1)

15. Example 2 Factor 10x 2 – 23x + 12.

16. Example 3 Determine Whether a Polynomial is Prime Factor 3x 2 + 7x – 5, if possible. In this trinomial, a = 3, b = 7, and c = –5. Since b is positive, m + p is positive. Since c is negative, mp is negative, so either m or p is negative, but not both. Therefore, make a list of all the factors of 3(–5) or –15, where one factor in each pair is negative. Look for the pair of factors with a sum of 7. –1,15 14 1,–15–14 –3,5 2 3,–5 –2 Factors of –15 Sum of Factors

17. Example 3 Determine Whether a Polynomial is Prime There are no factors whose sum is 7. Therefore, 3x 2 + 7x – 5 cannot be factored using integers. Answer: 3x 2 + 7x – 5 is a prime polynomial.

18. Example 3 Factor 3x 2 – 5x + 3, if possible.

19. Example 4 Solve Equations by Factoring ROCKETS Mr. Nguyen’s science class built a model rocket for a competition. When they launched their rocket outside the classroom, the rocket cleared the top of a 60-foot high pole and then landed in a nearby tree. If the launch pad was 2 feet above the ground, the initial velocity of the rocket was 64 feet per second, and the rocket landed 30 feet above the ground, how long was the rocket in flight? Use the equation h = –16t 2 + vt + h 0. h = –16t 2 + vt + h 0 Equation for height 30 = –16t 2 + 64t + 2h = 30, v = 64, h 0 = 2 0 = –16t 2 + 64t – 28Subtract 30 from each side.

20. Example 4 Solve Equations by Factoring 0 = –4(4t 2 – 16t + 7)Factor out –4. 0 = 4t 2 – 16t + 7Divide each side by –4. 0 = (2t – 7)(2t – 1)Factor 4t 2 – 16t + 7. 2t – 7 = 0 or 2t – 1=0Zero Product Property 2t = 7 2t=1Solve each equation. Divide.

21. Example 4 Solve Equations by Factoring Answer: about 3.5 seconds again on its way down. Thus, the rocket was in flight for about 3.5 seconds before landing.
