6.1 Lecture Guide: An Introduction to Factoring Polynomials Objective: Factor out the GCF of a polynomial.

Greatest Common Factor of a Polynomial: The GCF of a polynomial is the common factor that contains 1. the largest possible numerical coefficient and 2. the largest possible exponent on each variable factor.

5. (c) Graph (d) What would you conclude about the original polynomial and in the standard viewing window. How do the graphs compare? and the factored form?

Objective: Factor by Grouping.

Factoring a Four-Term Polynomial by Grouping Pairs of Terms Step 1. Be sure you have factored out the GCF if it is not 1. Step 2. Use grouping symbols to pair the terms so that each pair has a common factor other than 1. Example:

Factoring a Four-Term Polynomial by Grouping Pairs of Terms Step 3. Factor the GCF out of each pair of terms. Step 4. If there is a common binomial factor of these two groups, factor out this GCF. If there is no common binomial factor, try to use Step 2 again with a different pairing of terms. If all possible pairs fail to produce a common binomial factor, the polynomial will not factor by this method.

Objective: Use the zeros of a polynomial and the x-intercepts of the graph of to factor the polynomial. The relationship among the factors of a polynomial, the zeros of a polynomial function, and the x-intercepts of a graph of a polynomial function is an important one. Ifis an input value for which the output equals 0, then c is called a zero of the function.
