key notes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To factorize a quadratic of the form ax2<\/sup>+bx+c, write it as<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ax2<\/sup>+r1<\/sub>x+r2<\/sub>x+c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

where a . c=r1<\/sub>. r2<\/sub> and b=r1<\/sub>+r2<\/sub>. Then factor by grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look at the given quadratic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3m2<\/sup>+5m+2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The product ac is 6, so you need to find a pair of factors with a product of 6. The b term is 5, so you need to find a pair of factors with a sum of 5. Since the product is positive (6) and the sum is positive (5), you need both factors to be positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make a list of the possible factor pairs with a product of 6, and then find the one with a sum of 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The factors 2 and 3 have a sum of 5. So, replace the quadratic’s 5m term with 2m and 3m, and then factor by grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look at the given quadratic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2t2<\/sup>+13t+11<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The product ac is 22, so you need to find a pair of factors with a product of 22. The b term is 13, so you need to find a pair of factors with a sum of 13. Since the product is positive (22) and the sum is positive (13), you need both factors to be positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make a list of the possible factor pairs with a product of 22, and then find the one with a sum of 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The factors 2 and 11 have a sum of 13. So, replace the quadratic’s 13t term with 2t and 11t, and then factor by grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2t2<\/sup>+13t+11<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, 2t2<\/sup>+13t+11=(2t+11)(t+1).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Look at the given quadratic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2t2<\/sup>+9t+9<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The product ac is 18, so you need to find a pair of factors with a product of 18. The b term is 9, so you need to find a pair of factors with a sum of 9. Since the product is positive (18) and the sum is positive (9), you need both factors to be positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make a list of the possible factor pairs with a product of 18, and then find the one with a sum of 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The factors 3 and 6 have a sum of 9. So, replace the quadratic’s 9t term with 3t and 6t, and then factor by grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
