Step 3 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.1 Factoring x2-3x+3
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -3x its coefficient is -3 .
The last term, "the constant", is +3
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 3 = 3
Step-2 : Find two factors of 3 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -3 .
-3 + -1 = -4
-1 + -3 = -4
1 + 3 = 4
3 + 1 = 4
