I use this with my students, and when they remember the steps they get it right away. Ex: 7x^2 + 29x + 4<br />1) Multiply a*c : 28<br />2) Use x puzzle to find two numbers that multiply to 28 and add to 29: 28, 1<br />3) Use the numbers to split the middle term and rewrite trinomial as polynomial with four terms: 7x^2 + 28x + x + 4 <br />4) Factor by grouping: 7x(x + 4) + 1(x + 4)<br />5) Finish by writing as two parentheses multiplied by each other: (7x+1)(x+4)<br /><br />It takes longer, but it's not a trick...<br />Adinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04012807741461325394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091979517567705761.post-1484573096492219952016-01-15T16:53:19.499-06:002016-01-15T16:53:19.499-06:00Glad you figured it out!
