Part 1: Create your own factorable trinomial. (1 point) Part 2: Explain, in complete sentences, how the trinomial is factored. (1 point) Part 3: Explain, in complete sentences, the process used to check the factors for accuracy.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Start with two binomials (not the product of a sum and a difference) and multiply them together. This will give you a trinomial that is definitely factorable.

OpenStudy (dariyana):

z^2+3z+1

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

How did you get thet trinomial? Is it factorable?

OpenStudy (dariyana):

i am not sure should i use 2z instead of 3z

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Yes, use 2z, so it is factorable. Why didn 't you follow what I wrote above? If you start with two binomials and multiply them together with FOIL, then the resulting trinomial will definitely be factorable.

OpenStudy (dariyana):

is that what you wrote above the answer to the question
