1. AIM: How do we factor a monomial from a polynomial? Do Now: Do Now: You will receive a free homework pass if you follow these directions: 1.Take out Friday’s Homework. Leave it on the left corner of your desk. 2.Complete the problems below in your notebook: 1.2x 2 (9 + x) 2.-3g 7 (g 4 - 6g 2 + 5)

2. HW Review: Regents Review 9 is due tomorrow. We will go over problem 8 from your homework: 8. 4d 2 (d 2 - 3d – 7) Any other questions?

3. BIG IDEAS: Factoring a polynomial reverses the multiplication process. To factor a monomial from a polynomial, first find the greatest common factor (GCF) of its terms.

4. 1. Finding the GCF

5. Quick Check: Quick Check: What is the GCF of this polynomial? 5v 5 + 10v 3

6. 2. Factoring out a monomial

7. Quick Check: Quick Check: Use the GCF to factor the polynomial 5d 3 + 10d

8. Classwork: During the class work, please work quickly and quietly in your groups. If you have a question, first ask your group mates. If they still do not know, you can then ask me. The first group to finished the assigned problems will receive homework passes.

9. Summary: Describe the steps of factoring a monomial from a polynomial.
