Part A: Factor 3x2y2 - xy2 - 2y2. Show your work. Part B: Factor x2 + 6x + 9. Show your work. Part C: Factor x2 - 25. Show your work. Part D: Do the polynomials in parts A, B, and C have a common factor? Explain your answer.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

what have you atempted?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i really

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only need help with d

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

tell me what you got for parts A, B, and C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a: y^2((3x+2)(x-1)) b: x^2+6x+9 c: x^2-25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was thinking x, but im confused

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Parts: A \(\large\color{black}{ 3x^2y^2 - xy^2 - 2y^2 }\) B \(\large\color{black}{ x^2 + 6x + 9 }\) C \(\large\color{black}{ x^2 -25 }\) you need to factor each part.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

will start from part C, okay?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I can wait, sure...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i gave you the wrong thing

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

?? ... t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a: is factored b: (x+3)^2 c: (x+5)(x-5)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

for part A you can factor out \(\large\color{black}{ y^2 }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y^2((3x+2)(x-1))

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and then factor the inner part, yes, \(\large\color{black}{ y^2(x-1)(3x+2) }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So you get: A: \(\large\color{black}{ y^2(x-1)(3x+2) }\) B: \(\large\color{black}{ (x+3)^2 }\) C: \(\large\color{black}{ (x+5)(x-5) }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

do A B and C have any common factors?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

x is not a factor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then no

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

the factors of part A are: \(\large\color{black}{ \color{red}{y^2}\color{blue}{(x-1)}\color{green}{(3x+2)} }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, they have no factors in common. part A has: \(\large\color{black}{ y^2 }\) , \(\large\color{black}{ x-1 }\) and \(\large\color{black}{ 3x+2 }\) part B has: \(\large\color{black}{ x+3 }\) twice part C has: \(\large\color{black}{ x+5 }\) and \(\large\color{black}{ x-5 }\)
