Factoring a Quadratic Expression
The process of expressing a quadratic expression as a product of two binomials.
Quadratic Expression
An algebraic expression of the form ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0.
Binomials
Algebraic expressions consisting of two terms connected by addition or subtraction.
Factoring Method
A technique used to find the factors of a given algebraic expression by breaking it down into simpler components.
Factoring (x^2 + 5x + 6)
The process of finding two binomials that multiply to x^2 + 5x + 6, such as (x + 2)(x + 3).
