SECTION 3-4 FACTORING POLYNOMIALS Objectives - Use the Factor Theorem to determine factors of a polynomial - Factor the sum and difference of two cubes

Factoring Polynomials Recall, that if a number is divided by any of its factors, the remainder is zero Likewise, if a polynomial is divided by any of its factors, the remainder is zero The Remainder Theorem states that if a polynomial is divided by (x - a), the remainder is the value of the function at a So, if (x - a) is a factor of P(x), then P(a) = 0

Factor Theorem Continued

Example: Determine whether the given binomial is a factor of the polynomial P(x) (x + 1); (x 2 – 3x + 1) (x + 2); (3x 4 + 6x 3 – 5x – 10)

Factoring Polynomials You are already familiar with methods for factoring quadratic expressions You can factor polynomials using factoring by grouping x 3 – x 2 – 25x + 25

Factoring by Grouping x 3 – 2x 2 – 9x x 3 + x 2 + 8x + 4

Factoring Polynomials Just as there is a special rule for factoring the difference of two squares, there are special rules for factoring the sum or difference of two cubes

Geometry Applications The volume of a plastic storage box is modeled by the function V(x) = x 3 + 6x 2 + 3x – 10. Identify the values of x for which V(x) = 0, then use the graph to factor V(x)
