Ac method
for
ax^2+bx+c
multiply a and c together
find what 2 numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b
split b up
gropu
factor
3x^2+7x+2
2 times 3=6
what 2 numbers multily to get 6 and ad to get 7
6 and 1
3x^2+6x+1x+2
(3x^2+6x)+(1x+2)
3x(x+2)+1(x+2)
(3x+1)(x+2) is factored
Like in real life problems?
if yes then when conducting a survey, when grading quizzes/assignments, etc
Its a line plot, for every number that is listed put a mark above the number on the number line. So if there was 3 6's, on the number line above the 6, put 3 marks like dots or x's to represent the amount of 6.
Hope you understand.
