Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring a2-16a+63
The first term is, a2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -16a its coefficient is -16 .
The last term, "the constant", is +63
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 63 = 63
Step-2 : Find two factors of 63 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -16 .
-63 + -1 = -64
-21 + -3 = -24
-9 + -7 = -16 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -9 and -7
a2 - 9a - 7a - 63
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
a • (a-9)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
7 • (a-9)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(a-7) • (a-9)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(a - 7) • (a - 9)
