6x2 + 12x

100

What is the GCF of 12x2 and 6x3?

6x2

100

Factor the polynomial. Your final answer should be in the form 

(      ) (      ):

12x3 - 9x2 + 4x - 3


(3x2 + 1)(4x - 3)

200

Simplify:

(x + 3)(x + 5) 

x2 + 8x +15

200

Factor using GCF your final answer should be in the form GCF(       ):

4x2 - 2x

2x(2x-1)

200

Factor the polynomial. Your final answer should be in the form 

(      ) (      ):

3y3 - 4y2 + 9y - 12

(y2 + 3)(3y - 4)

300

Simplify:

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

6x2 - 1x - 2

or 

6x2 - x - 2

300

Factor using GCF your final answer should be in the form GCF(       ):

5k3 - 40k2 + 10k

5k(k2 - 8k + 2)

300

Factor the polynomial. Your final answer should be in the form 

(      ) (      ):

25k3 + 5k2 + 30k + 6

(5k2 + 6)(5k + 1)

400

Simplify:

(3x + 2)2

9x2 + 12x + 4

400

Factor using GCF your final answer should be in the form GCF(       ):

18x - 21x

-3x(7x - 6)

(You have to put it in standard form first and factor out the negative!)

400

Factor the polynomial. Your final answer should be in the form 

(      ) (      ):

12xy - 28x - 15y + 35

(4x - 5)(3y - 7)

500

(x + 3)(x+ 7x - 6)

x3 + 10x2 + 15x - 18

500

Factor using GCF your final answer should be in the form GCF(       ):

30a2b5 + 10a3b3

10a2b3(3b2 + a)

500

Factor completely. Hint: Make sure any GCFs are factored out first.

6x3 + 8x2 + 12x + 16

2(3x + 4)(x2 + 2)
