Factoring Trinomials - YourTeacher.com - Algebra Help

For a complete lesson on factoring trinomials, go to http://www.yourteacher.com - 1000+ online math lessons featuring a personal math teacher inside every lesson! In this lesson, students learn that a trinomial in the form x^2 + bx + c (where c is negative), such as x^2 + 6x -- 27, can be factored as the product of two binomials, in this case (x + 9)(x -- 3). The first term in each binomial comes from the factors of x^2, x and x. The second term in each binomial comes from the factors of the constant term, --27, that add to the coefficient of the middle term, +6, which in this case are +9 and --3.

@hoathton ... find two numbers whose product is +21 and whose sum is -22. Two negatives multiplied give a postive. Here, 21 = -21 times -1, and their sum is ... -22 ... !

[jwm239]

a good short explanation of how to 'decompose' that -15 into the requisite factors such that their sum is 2. This works when the coefficient of x^2 is 1.
