To factor ax2 + bx + c, check the factors of a and the factors of c in the binomials. the sum of the products
of the outer and inner terms should be b.
Since you need to check all the factors of a and all the factors of c, it may be helpful to make the table.
Then check the products of outer and the inner terms to see if the sum is b. You can multiply the
binomials to check your answer.
product =a
product =c
Sum of inner and outer products = b
( x + )( x + ) = ax2 + bx + c
