24x2y + 6xy – 9y
3y(2x - 1)(4x + 3) is the factored
form.
Check your solution!

Solve Equations by Factoring (find the roots)
x2 = -8x
x2 + 8x = 0
x(x + 8)= 0
x = 0 or x + 8 = 0
0 or 8x =
Set the equation equal to 0.
Factor the polynomial completely.
Set each of the factors equal to 0.

Set the equation equal to 0. Make sure it’s in standard form.
Factor the polynomial completely.
Set each of the factors equal to 0.
Find two consecutive positive even integers whose product is 80.
Let x = the 1st integer Let x + 2 = the 2nd integer1st integer 2nd integer = 80
x(x + 2) = 80x2 + 2x = 80
x2 + 2x – 80 = 0+●

(x + 10) (x – 8) = 0
x = -10 or 8 Remember the problem asked for positive
consecutive even integers. Only one of the roots will fit the context of this problem.
The 1st integer is 8 and the 2nd integer is
10.
x + 10 = 0 or x – 8 = 0
The width of a rectangular poster is 7 in. less than its length. If the poster’s area is 78 in2,
find the dimensions.
Let x = length Let x - 7 = width
length width = areax(x - 7) = 78
x2 - 7x = 78
x2 - 7x – 78 = 0+●
-78

(x + 6) (x – 13) = 0
x = -6 or 13Only the positive root makes sense in this
context. Length can’t be negative. Discard
the negative root.Length is 13 and
width is 6.

The sum of the squares of two negative consecutive integers is 145. Find the integers.
Let x = 1st integer
Let x + 1 = 2nd integer
square of 1st + square of 2nd = 145x2 + (x + 1)2 = 145
x2 + (x + 1)(x + 1) = 145x2 + x2 + x + x + 1 = 145

2x2 + 2x + 1 = 145
2x2 + 2x – 144 = 0
2(x2 + x – 72) = 0
2(x + 9)(x – 8) = 0
x + 9 = 0 or x – 8 = 0
x = -9 or 8
Which answer doesn’t make sense in the
context of this problem?
The integers are -9 & -8.
