STEP
1
:
Equation at the end of step 1
((9 • (x4)) - 3x2) + 1
STEP
2
:
Equation at the end of step
2
:
(32x4 - 3x2) + 1
STEP
3
:
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.1 Factoring 9x4-3x2+1
The first term is, 9x4 its coefficient is 9 .
The middle term is, -3x2 its coefficient is -3 .
The last term, "the constant", is +1
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 9 • 1 = 9
Step-2 : Find two factors of 9 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -3 .
-9 + -1 = -10
-3 + -3 = -6
-1 + -9 = -10
1 + 9 = 10
3 + 3 = 6
9 + 1 = 10
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
9x4 - 3x2 + 1
