Faelyn grouped the terms and factored the GCF out of the groups of the polynomial 6x4 – 8x2 + 3x2 + 4. Her work is shown.Step 1: (6x4 – 8x2) + (3x2 + 4)Step 2: 2x2(3x2 – 4) + 1(3x2 + 4)

Faelyn should realize that her work shows that the polynomial is prime.

Faelyn should go back and regroup the terms in Step 1 as (6x4 + 3x2) – (8x2 + 4).

In Step 2, Faelyn should factor only 2x out of the first expression.

Faelyn should factor out a negative from one of the groups so the binomials will be the same.

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 – 9x2 + 5x – 45 by grouping?

x2(x – 9) – 5(x – 9)

x2(x + 9) – 5(x + 9)

x(x2 + 5) – 9(x2 + 5)

x(x2 – 5) – 9(x2 – 5)

Factor x3 + x2 + x + 1 by grouping. What is the resulting expression?

(x2)(x + 1)

(x2 + 1)(x)

(x2 + 1)(x + 1)

(x3 + 1)(x + 1)

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 + 5x2 – 6x – 30 by grouping?

x(x2 – 5) + 6(x2 – 5)

x(x2 + 5) – 6(x2 + 5)

x2(x – 5) + 6(x – 5)

x2(x + 5) – 6(x + 5)

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 + 4x2 + 5x + 20 by grouping?

x(x2 + 4) + 5(x2 + 4)

x2(x + 4) + 5(x + 4)

x2(x + 5) + 4(x + 5)

x(x2 + 5) + 4x(x2 + 5)

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 – 12x2 – 2x + 24 by grouping?

x(x2 – 12) + 2(x2 – 12)

x(x2 – 12) – 2(x2 – 12)

x2(x – 12) + 2(x – 12)

x2(x – 12) – 2(x – 12)

Which polynomial is prime?

3x3 + 3x2 – 2x – 2

3x3 – 2x2 + 3x – 4

4x3 + 2x2 + 6x + 3

4x3 + 4x2 – 3x – 3

Factor 6x4 – 5x2 + 12x2 – 10 by grouping. What is the resulting expression?

(6x + 5)(x2 – 2)

(6x – 5)(x2 + 2)

(6x2 + 5)(x2 – 2)

(6x2 – 5)(x2 + 2)

The polynomial 10x3 + 35x2 − 4x − 14 is factored by grouping. 10x3 + 35x2 − 4x − 145x2(____) − 2(____)What is the common factor that is missing from both sets of parentheses?

−2x − 7

2x + 7
