Lesson 9.3Factoring Trinomials:x² + bx + c Objectives: To factor trinomials of the form x² + bx + c To solve equations of the form x²+ bx + c = 0
Factoring x² + bx + c To factor a trinomial of the form x² + bx + c find two numbers with the sum of the middle term b and product of the last term c. Example: x² + 11x + 24 Factors of 24 Sum of 11 product of 24 sum of 11 (x + )(x + ) Note: X² will always factor into x and x
x² + 7x + 12 2. x² - 12x + 27 Ex. 1: Factor each trinomial.
3. x² + 3x - 18 4. x² - x - 20
5. 72 + 27a + a² 6. x² - 4xy + 3y²
p² - 2p – 35 h² + 3h - 40 c² - 3c + 2 c² + 12c + 35 Your turn……
Some equations of the form x² + bx + c = 0 can be solved by factoring and then using the Zero Product Property.
1. x² + 16x + 28 = 0 2. y² + 4y – 12 = 0 Ex. 2: Solve each equation.
3. z² = 18 - 7z 4. c² - 50 = -23c
5. x² + 2x = 15 6. 14p + p² = 51 Your turn…
SUMMARY To factor a trinomial of the form x² + bx + c find two numbers with the sum of the middle term b and product of the last term c. To solve an equation of the form x² + bx + c = 0, set the equation equal to zero, factor, and use the Zero Product Property to solve. NBA #3, page 493, problems 18-52 even
