Possibility #2: ax² - bx + c (x – west) (x- east) + - Larger # - Smaller # -
Examples of ax² - bx + c 1.) x² – 6x ) a² -14a ) 6 -13x + 6x² 4.) 15x² – 19x + 6
Possibility #3: ax² + bx - c (x + west) (x- east) - Larger # + Smaller # - +
Examples of ax² + bx - c 1.) x² + x – 42 2.) x² + 6xy -72y² 3.) 5x² + x ) 24x⁴ + 47x² -2
Possibility #4: ax² - bx - c (x- west) (x + east) - Larger # - Smaller # + -
Examples of ax² –bx -c 1.) x² -7x ) y²–xy -2x² 3.) 2x² -7x -4 4.) 2x² – x - 1
