Activity No: 7 (1st Quarter) Activity Title: Factoring Polynomials

Learning Targets: the learners should be able to factor completely polynomials with common
Monomial factor.

Author: Orlando A. Oronce Page Numbers: 58 - 66

Concept Notes:
FACTORING and GCF
Factoring is finding two or more factors of a number or polynomial.
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of two or more monomial is the common factor having the
greatest numerical factor and with variables having the least degree. Thus, the term ax n is the GCF
of a polynomial if
1. a is the greatest integer that divides each of the coefficients of the polynomials, and
2. n is the smallest exponent of x in all the terms of the polynomial.
Rewriting a polynomial as a product of polynomials of smaller degree is called FACTORING A
POLYNOMIAL.

Learning Targets: The learners should be able to, differentiate the descending order and ascending
Order, know how to arrange the equation into descending order or into
Ascending order and multiply polynomials by monomials.
Values/ Attitudes: ______________________________________________________________________________
Concept Notes:
The conventional way of writing a polynomial in one variable is to write the terms in order of
descending (or decreasing) degrees. When a polynomial is written with decreasing exponents, the
coefficient of the first term is called the leading coefficient.
In some instances, it is convenient to write the polynomial in ascending ( or increasing) order.
Laws of Exponents:
1. Product Rule for Exponents-( x ¿¿ m) ¿ ¿)= x m+ n
2. Power Rule for Exponents - ( x ¿¿ m)n ¿ = x mn
3. Power of a Product Rule- ( xy )m=x m y m
Commutative Property of Multiplication- a x b = b x a
Associative Property of Multiplication- (a x b) x c = a x (b x c)
Distributive Property of Multiplication – a(b + c) = ab + ac

Plotting a Point
To graph or plot a point given its coordinates:

absolute value of the first coordinate.
2. From that position on the x-axis, move up or down using the number indicated by the absolute value
of the second coordinate.
3. Draw a dot to represent the point described by the coordinates.
Identifying Quadrants
To determine the quadrant for a given ordered pair, consider the signs of the coordinates:
( + , + ) means the point is in the first quadrant.
( - , + ) means the point is in the second quadrant.
( - , - ) means the point is in the third quadrant.
( + , - ) means the point is in the fourth quadrant.
Identifying the Coordinates of a Point
To determine the coordinates of a given point in the rectangular system:
1. Draw a vertical line passing through the point and the x-axis. The number associated to the point
on the x-axis is the first coordinate.

If the coordinates of two points on a line are ( x 1 , y 1 ¿ and ( x 2 , y 2 ¿ , the slope m can be found as follows:
y 2− y 1
m= , where x 1 ≠ x 2
x 2−x 1
y 2 is read y sub 1 the number 1is called a subscript

Author: Orlando A. Oronce Page Numbers: 250 -258
Values/ Attitudes: appreciation
Concept Notes:
Consider the line given by Ax + By = C:
1. The x – intercept of the line is the value of x when y=0. To find the x-intercept, let y=0 and solve x in Ax = C.
2. The y-intercept of the line is the value of y when x=0. To find the y- intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y in By =
C.
Definition
X-intercept: the point where the graph intersects the x-axis.
Y-intercept: the point where the graph intersects the y-axis.
RULES
Intercepts for m of y =mx
If an equation is given in the form y=mx, where m is a real number other than 0, then the x - and y-
intercepts are at the origin ( 0, 0 ).
The y – intercept of y ‘= mx + b
If an equation is in the form y = mx + b, where m and b are real numbers, then the y-intercept is ( 0, b)

intercept and the x-intercept is ( c, 0 ).

Classifying Systems of Linear equations
To classify a system of linear equations, write the equations in slope-intercept form and compare their
slopes and y-intercepts.
1. If their slopes are different, then the system is consistent with independent equations and has a single
solution.
2. If their slopes are equal and the y-intercepts are also equal, then the system is consistent with
dependent equations and has an infinite number of solutions.
3. If their slopes are equal with different y-intercepts, then the system is inconsistent and has no solution

Concept Notes:
The Substitution Method
1. Solve for either variable in one of the equations. If one of the variables in an equation has coefficient 1 or -1,
choose that equation, since the substitution method is usually easier this way.
2. 2. Substitute for that variable in the other equation. The result is an equation wit, if h one variable.
3. Solve the equation in Step 2 . ( if the result is a false statement, then we have a system with no solution.
However, if the result is a true statement, we either have a system with infinitely many solutions or one with
exactly one solution.)
4. Substitute the result in step 3 into the equation in step 1 to find the value of the other variable.

Concept Notes:
The Triangle Inequality Theorem
In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the third side.
Unequal Sides Theorem
If one side of a triangle is longer than the second, then the angle opposite the longer side is larger than the angle
opposite the second side.
Unequal Angles Theorem
If one angle of a triangle is larger than the second angle, then the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side
opposite the second angle.
The Hinge Theorem
If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, but the included angle of the first triangle is
larger than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the
second triangle.
