Which expression represents the factored form of nine x squared minus thirtysix?
You can use the formula for factoring the difference of two squares in this case.
How do you tell if a polynomial cannot be factored?
Try all the factoring techniques that you have been taught. If none work then it is prime (cannot be factored), try looking for (1) a greatest common factor (2) special binomials ... difference of squares, difference (or sum) of cubes (3) trinomal factoring techniques (4) other polymonials look for grouping techniques.
What is the difference multiplying binomials with factoring polynomials into binomial factors?
It's the difference between multiplication and division. Multiplying binomials is combining them. Factoring polynomials is breaking them apart.
Is it possible to apply the procedures in factoring quadratic trinomials to factoring the difference of two terms?
Yes, simply treat the middle coefficient as 0.
What is the difference between factoring and solving?
The difference between factoring and solving is...Factoring: The answer would be in multiplication form.Example: x²+7x+12=0 is the same as (x+3)(x+4)Solving: The answer would be what the unknown variable is equal too.Example: x²+7x+12=0 is the same as x=-3 or X=-4
