Factor Algebraic Expressions - Grade 9

Three techniques of factoring are presented in this video and are listed with the examples used: 1 - Factoring by reverse distribution or common factor a) 4x - 16 b) 6 x^2 + 2 x Factoring using the difference of two squares c) x^2 - 9 d) 9x^2 - 16 y^2 Factoring trinomials e) x^2 - 4x - 5 f) (1/2) x^2 + x + (1/2)
