  1. Unit #3: Quadratics5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions Essential Question: How is FOIL related to factoring?

  2. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Quadratic Functions (you saw this in 5-1) • A quadratic function is one whose largest term uses x2 • It’s written in standard form asf(x) = ax2 + bx + c • a, b, and c represent coefficients (real numbers) • The x2 terms comes first, followed by the x term, followed by the term that doesn’t have an x • The x2 term and x term cannot be combined

  3. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • FOIL (Note: You saw this in 5-1) • FOIL is an acronym for “First, Outer, Inner, Last” • Multiply the indicated terms together • Combine like terms • Example: y = (2x + 3)(x – 4) • y = (2x + 3)(x – 4) Last First First: 2x • x = 2x2 Outer: 2x • -4 = -8x Inner: 3 • x = 3x Last: 3 • -4 = -12 y = 2x2– 8x + 3x – 12 y = 2x2 – 5x - 12 Inner Outer

  4. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • FOIL • (x – 4)(x + 3) • (-x – 5)(3x – 1) x2 – 4x + 3x – 12 x2 – x – 12 -3x2 – 15x + x + 5 -3x2 – 14x + 5

  5. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Finding the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) • The GCF of an expression is the common factor with the greatest coefficient and the smallest exponent • Example: Factor 4x6 + 20x3 – 12x2 • The largest coefficient that can divide 4, 20, and -12 is 4 • The smallest exponent is x2 • 4x2(x4) + 4x2(5x) + 4x2(-3) • 4x2(x4 + 5x – 3)

  6. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factor • 4w2 + 2w • 5t4 + 7t2 GCF: 2w Factored: 2w(2w + 1) GCF: 1t2 Factored: t2(5t2 + 7)

  8. Unit #3: Quadratics5-4: Factoring Quadratic ExpressionsDay 2 Essential Question: How is FOIL related to factoring?

  9. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factoring: The steps (Holy Grail algorithm) • In standard form: f(x) = ax2 + bx + c • Find two numbers with: • A product of a • c • A sum of b • Use those two numbers to split the “b” term • Factor out the GCF from the first two terms as well as the last two terms • You know you’ve factored correctly if both binomials inside the parenthesis match • Combine the terms outside parenthesis into their own parenthesis +

  10. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Some hints (summarized on next slide): • The a term should be positive (I won’t give you otherwise) • If not, flip the signs on each term • -x2 + 5x + 24 gets flipped into x2 – 5x – 24 • If a • c is positive, the two numbers you’re looking for are going to be the same sign as b • ex #1) x2 + 9x + 20 4 & 5 • ex #2) x2 – 11x + 28 -4 & -7 • Why? Because only a positive • positive and/or negative • negative = positive • If a • c is negative, the bigger of the two numbers will have the same sign as b • ex #3) x2 + 3x – 10 5 & -2 • ex #4) x2 – 5x – 24 -8 & 3 • Why? Because only a negative • positive = negative

  12. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factoring (Example #4) • Factor: 3x2 – 16x + 5 • a = 3, c = 5 → ac = 15 • Find two numbers that: • multiply together to get 15 • add to get -16 • Possibilities: -1/-15, -3/-5 • Rewrite the b term • 3x2 – 1x – 15x + 5 • Factor GCF from first two and last two terms • x(3x – 1) – 5(3x – 1) • Combine terms outside the parenthesis • (x – 5)(3x – 1) 3x2 – 16x + 5 + 3x2 x x + 5 -1 -15 x(3x – 1) -5(3x – 1) (x – 5)(3x – 1)

  27. Unit #3: Quadratics5-4: Factoring Quadratic ExpressionsDay 4 Essential Question: How is FOIL related to factoring?

  28. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • There are two special cases to discuss: • The Difference of Perfect Squares • x2 – 16 • If we’re using the Holy Grail Algorithm: • a = 1 • b = 0 (there’s no ‘x’ term) • c = -16 • So we’re looking for two numbers that multiply to get -16 (1 • -16) and add together to get 0 • The only way to have two numbers that add together to get 0 is if they’re opposites, in this case 4 & -4

  29. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factoring: x2 - 16 x2 + 0x – 16 + x2 x x – 16 -4 +4 x(x – 4) +4(x – 4) (x + 4)(x – 4)

  30. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factor • 9x2 – 25 • The shortcut: • Take the square root of the left term: • Take the square root of the right term: • Write the factor as a sum and difference of the squares 3x 5 (3x + 5)(3x – 5)

  31. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Perfect Square Trinomial • x2 + 6x + 9 • If we’re using the Holy Grail Algorithm: • a = 1 • b = 6 • c = 9 • So we’re looking for two numbers that multiply to get 9 (1 • 9) and add together to get 6 • Those numbers have to be 3 & 3 • A perfect square trinomial occurs when the numbers are the same.

  32. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factoring: x2 + 6x + 9 x2 + 6x + 9 + x2 x x + 9 +3 +3 x(x + 3) +3(x + 3) (x + 3)(x + 3) written as (x + 3)2

  33. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Factor • 16x2 – 56x + 49 • The shortcut: • Take the square root of the left term: • Take the square root of the right term: • The sign both terms share will be the sign of the middle term: 4x 7 (4x – 7)(4x – 7) = (4x – 7)2

  34. 5-4: Factoring Quadratic Expressions • Assignment • Pg. 264 • 37 – 45 (all problems) • No work = no credit
