-ax2 + bx + c Negative Leading Coefficient Chapter 6 – Factoring Lesson 6-3b Factoring Trinomials -ax2 + bx + c Negative Leading Coefficient
Objective: The student will practice solving problems involving factoring trinomials of the form -ax2 + bx + c.
Distribute -1 out of the trinomial. Factor -24x2 + 22x - 3 -1( ) Distribute -1 out of the trinomial. Factor the trinomial. or (24x - )(x - ) (12x - )(2x - ) (8x - )(3x - ) (6x - )(4x - ) or or Put in factors of 3 to make -22. -1 (6x - 1)(4x - 3) Do not forget your -1. Distribute -1 back into the first binomial. Answer: (-6x + 1)(4x - 3) Example 4-1b
-6x2 + 7x + 10 (-6x - 5)(x - 2) or (-x + 2)(6x + 5) Factor Answer: Example 4-3b
