Section 1.5 : Factoring Polynomials

For problems 1 – 4 factor out the greatest common factor from each polynomial.

  • \(6{x^7} + 3{x^4} - 9{x^3}\) Solution
  • \({a^3}{b^8} - 7{a^{10}}{b^4} + 2{a^5}{b^2}\) Solution
  • \(2x{\left( {{x^2} + 1} \right)^3} - 16{\left( {{x^2} + 1} \right)^5}\) Solution
  • \({x^2}\left( {2 - 6x} \right) + 4x\left( {4 - 12x} \right)\) Solution

For problems 5 & 6 factor each of the following by grouping.

  • \(7x + 7{x^3} + {x^4} + {x^6}\) Solution
  • \(18x + 33 - 6{x^4} - 11{x^3}\) Solution

For problems 7 – 15 factor each of the following.

  • \({x^2} - 2x - 8\) Solution
  • \({z^2} - 10z + 21\) Solution
  • \({y^2} + 16y + 60\) Solution
  • \(5{x^2} + 14x - 3\) Solution
  • \(6{t^2} - 19t - 7\) Solution
  • \(4{z^2} + 19z + 12\) Solution
  • \({x^2} + 14x + 49\) Solution
  • \(4{w^2} - 25\) Solution
  • \(81{x^2} - 36x + 4\) Solution

For problems 16 – 18 factor each of the following.

  • \({x^6} + 3{x^3} - 4\) Solution
  • \(3{z^5} - 17{z^4} - 28{z^3}\) Solution
  • \(2{x^{14}} - 512{x^6}\) Solution

COMMENTS

  1. Who Created the Polynomials?

    There is no one specific person who invented the polynomials, but their history can be traced back to the Babylonians. They used verbal instructions for solving problems related to quadratics.

  2. What Are Some Real-Life Examples of Polynomials?

    The motion of an object that’s thrown 3m up at a velocity of 14 m/s can be described using the polynomial -5tsquared + 14t + 3 = 0. Factorizing the quadratic equation gives the time it takes for the object to hit the ground.

  3. What Is an Example of a Prime Polynomial?

    Examples of prime polynomials include 2x2+14x+3 and x2+x+1. Prime numbers in mathematics refer to any numbers that have only one factor pair, the number and 1. A polynomial is considered prime if it cannot be factored into the standard line...
