Factor quadratic trinomials of the form ax2 + bx + c.
Objective
Holt McDougal Algebra 1
7-4 Factoring ax2 + bx + c
In the previous lesson you factored trinomials of the form x2 + bx + c. Now you will factor trinomials of the form ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 0.

7-4 Factoring ax2 + bx + c
Example 1: Factoring ax2 + bx + c by Guess and Check
Factor 6x2 + 11x + 4 by guess and check.
( + )( + ) Write two sets of parentheses.
The first term is 6x2, so at least one variable term has a coefficient other than 1.
( x + )( x + )
The coefficient of the x2 term is 6. The constant term in the trinomial is 4.
Try factors of 6 for the coefficients and factors of 4 for the constant terms.
(1x + 4)(6x + 1) = 6x2 + 25x + 4 (1x + 2)(6x + 2) = 6x2 + 14x + 4 (1x + 1)(6x + 4) = 6x2 + 10x + 4
(2x + 4)(3x + 1) = 6x2 + 14x + 4
(3x + 4)(2x + 1) = 6x2 + 11x + 4

Example 1 Continued
Factor 6x2 + 11x + 4 by guess and check.
( + )( + ) Write two sets of parentheses.
The first term is 6x2, so at least one variable term has a coefficient other than 1.
( x + )( x + )
6x2 + 11x + 4 = (3x + 4)(2x + 1)
The factors of 6x2 + 11x + 4 are (3x + 4) and (2x + 1).

Check It Out! Example 1a
Factor each trinomial by guess and check.
( + )( + ) Write two sets of parentheses.
The first term is 6x2, so at least one variable term has a coefficient other than 1.
( x + )( x + )
The coefficient of the x2 term is 6. The constant term in the trinomial is 3.
6x2 + 11x + 3
(1x + 3)(6x + 1) = 6x2 + 19x + 3 (1x + 1)(6x + 3) = 6x2 + 9x + 3
Try factors of 6 for the coefficients and factors of 3 for the constant terms.
(2x + 1)(3x + 3) = 6x2 + 9x + 3
(3x + 1)(2x + 3) = 6x2 + 11x + 3

6x2 + 11x + 3
The factors of 6x2 + 11x + 3 are (3x + 1)(2x + 3).

Check It Out! Example 1b Factor each trinomial by guess and check.
( + )( + ) Write two sets of parentheses.
The first term is 3x2, so at least one variable term has a coefficient other than 1.
( x + )( x + )
3x2 – 2x – 8
The coefficient of the x2 term is 3. The constant term in the trinomial is –8.
Try factors of 3 for the coefficients and factors of 8 for the constant terms.
(1x – 1)(3x + 8) = 3x2 + 5x – 8
(1x – 8)(3x + 1) = 3x2 – 23x – 8 (1x – 4)(3x + 2) = 3x2 – 10x – 8
(1x – 2)(3x + 4) = 3x2 – 2x – 8

3x2 – 2x – 8
The factors of 3x2 – 2x – 8 are (x – 2)(3x + 4).
3x2 – 2x – 8 = (x – 2)(3x + 4)
