Objective Factor polynomials by using the greatest common factor.

Recall that the Distributive Property states that ab + ac =a(b + c) Recall that the Distributive Property states that ab + ac =a(b + c). The Distributive Property allows you to “factor” out the GCF of the terms in a polynomial to write a factored form of the polynomial. A polynomial is in its factored form when it is written as a product of monomials and polynomials that cannot be factored further. The polynomial 2(3x – 4x) is not fully factored because the terms in the parentheses have a common factor of x.

Example 1A: Factoring by Using the GCF Factor each polynomial. Check your answer. 2x2 – 4 2x2 = 2  x  x Find the GCF. 4 = 2  2 2 The GCF of 2x2 and 4 is 2. Write terms as products using the GCF as a factor. 2x2 – (2  2) 2(x2 – 2) Use the Distributive Property to factor out the GCF. Multiply to check your answer. Check 2(x2 – 2) The product is the original polynomial.  2x2 – 4

To write expressions for the length and width of a rectangle with area expressed by a polynomial, you need to write the polynomial as a product. You can write a polynomial as a product by factoring it.

Example 2: Application The area of a court for the game squash is (9x2 + 6x) square meters. Factor this polynomial to find possible expressions for the dimensions of the squash court. A = 9x2 + 6x The GCF of 9x2 and 6x is 3x. = 3x(3x) + 2(3x) Write each term as a product using the GCF as a factor. = 3x(3x + 2) Use the Distributive Property to factor out the GCF. Possible expressions for the dimensions of the squash court are 3x m and (3x + 2) m.

Possible expressions for the dimensions of the solar panel are 2x cm, and (x + 2) cm.

Sometimes the GCF of terms is a binomial Sometimes the GCF of terms is a binomial. This GCF is called a common binomial factor. You factor out a common binomial factor the same way you factor out a monomial factor.

If two quantities are opposites, their sum is 0. (5 – x) + (x – 5) 5 – x + x – 5 – x + x + 5 – 5 0 + 0 Helpful Hint

Recognizing opposite binomials can help you factor polynomials Recognizing opposite binomials can help you factor polynomials. The binomials (5 – x) and (x – 5) are opposites. Notice (5 – x) can be written as –1(x – 5). –1(x – 5) = (–1)(x) + (–1)(–5) Distributive Property. = –x + 5 Simplify. = 5 – x Commutative Property of Addition. So, (5 – x) = –1(x – 5)

Vocabulary prime factorization greatest common factor

The whole numbers that are multiplied to find a product are called factors of that product. A number is divisible by its factors. You can use the factors of a number to write the number as a product. The number 12 can be factored several ways. Factorizations of 12 1 12  2 6 3 4 1 4 3 2 2 3

The order of factors does not change the product, but there is only one example below that cannot be factored further. The circled factorization is the prime factorization because all the factors are prime numbers. The prime factors can be written in any order, and except for changes in the order, there is only one way to write the prime factorization of a number. Factorizations of 12 1 12  2 6 3 4 1 4 3 2 2 3

A prime number has exactly two factors, itself and 1 A prime number has exactly two factors, itself and 1. The number 1 is not prime because it only has one factor. Remember!
