  4. X-box Factoring • This is a guaranteed method for factoring quadratic equations—no guessing necessary! • We will learn how to factor quadratic equations using the x-box method • Background knowledge needed: • Basic x-solve problems • General form of a quadratic equation • Dividing a polynomial by a monomial using the box method

  5. Standard 11.0 Students apply basic factoring techniques to second- and simple third-degree polynomials. These techniques include finding a common factor for all terms in a polynomial, recognizing the difference of two squares, and recognizing perfect squares of binomials. Objective: I can use the x-box method to factor non-prime trinomials.

  6. Factor the x-box way Example: Factor 3x2 -13x -10 (3)(-10)= -30 x -5 3x 3x2 -15x 2 -15 -13 -10 2x +2 3x2 -13x -10 = (x-5)(3x+2)

  7. Factor the x-box way y = ax2 + bx + c Base 1 Base 2 Product ac=mn First and Last Coefficients 1st Term Factor n GCF n m Middle Last term Factor m b=m+n Sum Height

  8. -12 4 Examples Factor using the x-box method. 1. x2 + 4x – 12 a) b) x +6 x26x -2x -12 x 6 -2 -2 Solution: x2 + 4x – 12 = (x + 6)(x - 2)

  9. Examples continued 2. x2 - 9x + 20 a) b) x -4 -4-5 20 -9 x2-4x -5x 20 x -5 Solution: x2 - 9x + 20 =(x - 4)(x - 5)

  10. Think-Pair-Share • Based on the problems we’ve done, list the steps in the diamond/box factoring method so that someone else can do a problem using only your steps. 2. Trade papers with your partner and use their steps to factor the following problem: x2 +4x -32.

  11. Trying out the Steps • If you cannot complete the problem using only the steps written, put an arrow on the step where you stopped. Give your partner’s paper back to him. • Modify the steps you wrote to correct any incomplete or incorrect steps. Finish the problem based on your new steps and give the steps back to your partner. • Try using the steps again to factor: 4x2 +4x -3.

  12. Stepping Up • Edit your steps and factor: 3x2 + 11x – 20. • Formalize the steps as a class.

  13. Examples continued 3. 2x2 - 5x - 7 a) b) 2x -7 -72 -14 -5 x 2x2-7x 2x -7 +1 Solution: 2x2 - 5x – 7 = (2x - 7)(x + 1)

  14. Examples continued 3. 15x2 + 7x - 2 a) b) 3x +2 -30 7 5x 15x210x -3x -2 10-3 -1 Solution: 15x2 + 7x – 2 = (3x + 2)(5x - 1)
