Holt Algebra 2
5-3 Solving Quadratic Equations by Graphing and Factoring
A trinomial (an expression with 3 terms) in standard form (ax2 +bx + c) can be factored by finding factors that multiply to equal c and add to equal b.
*Always check for a GCF first.
f(x) = x2 – 4x – 12
(x + 2)(x – 6)
c = -12, factors that multiply to equal -12
b = -4, add the factors and see which one
equals -4
1 and -12 1 + (-12) = -11
-1 and 12 -1 + 12 = 11
2 and -6 2 + (-6) = -4
-2 and 6 -2 + 6 = 4
3 and -4 3 + (-4) = -1
-3 and 4 -3 + 4 = 1
