3x^2+27x+9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you factoring this

OpenStudy (cj49):

\[-b \pm \sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac}/2a\]

OpenStudy (cj49):

3x^2+27x+9(divide by 3) x^2+9x+3 a=1,b=9 and c=3 substitute the values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. The worksheet says to factor out the GCF.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you get 9x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he is Apply the Quadratic Formula and factoring

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you have to factor\[3x^2+27x+9\]need to divide everything by 3 so you would get\[3(x^2+9x+3)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why apply the Quadratic Formula? And what is the Quadratic Formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah, now I get where the 9x came from, just needed to see it written out and then it clicked in my head.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So now do I distribute the 3 or do I simplify?
