Topics for Today:
We expanded our discussion today to include factoring polynomials where the leading coefficient is not 1. We used the product-sum game to work with factors so we could "split the middle" of the equation, and then factor by grouping.Sections Covered in Textbook:
9-6: Factoring Trinomials of the type ax2 + bx + c (where a ≠ 1)(pages 486-489)
Resources & Tutorials:
1) Factor a trinomial using A-C method (This is a different method from what was introduced in class.)
2) Factor a trinomial with a > 1
(This method is more like what was introduced in class.)
