x2 + 13x + 4 = (x + 6½ + √38¼)(x + 6½ - √38¼).

To find this, we need to find p and q, where

p + q = 13, pq = 4.

4 = 42¼ - 38¼

= (6½ + √38¼)(6½ - √38¼); thus,

p = (6½ + √38¼), q = (6½ - √38¼).

A polynomial of degree zero is a constant term

The grouping method of factoring can still be used when only some of the terms share a common factor A True B False

The sum or difference of p and q is the of the x-term in the trinomial

A number a power of a variable or a product of the two is a monomial while a polynomial is the of monomials
