:
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
8x2 + 2x + 12 = 2 • (4x2 + x + 6)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.2 Factoring 4x2 + x + 6
The first term is, 4x2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, +x its coefficient is 1 .
The last term, "the constant", is +6
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • 6 = 24
Step-2 : Find two factors of 24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 1 .
-24 + -1 = -25
-12 + -2 = -14
-8 + -3 = -11
-6 + -4 = -10
-4 + -6 = -10
-3 + -8 = -11
-2 + -12 = -14
-1 + -24 = -25
1 + 24 = 25
2 + 12 = 14
3 + 8 = 11
4 + 6 = 10
6 + 4 = 10
8 + 3 = 11
12 + 2 = 14
24 + 1 = 25
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Polynomial Long Division :
3.3 Polynomial Long Division
Dividing : 4x2+x+6
("Dividend")
By : 4x-1 ("Divisor")
dividend 4x2 + x + 6
- divisor * x1 4x2 - x
remainder 2x + 6
- divisor * 0x0
remainder 2x + 6
Quotient : x
Remainder : 2x+6
Final result :
2 • (4x2 + x + 6)
