Thanks to the rubbish browser which you are required to use for posting questions, we cannot see most mathematical symbols. It is, therefore, not possible to give an unambiguous answer.


The algebraic sum of a and b is the coefficient of the middle term - the term for x.


Incidentally, the algebraic sum is the sum of a and b which takes account of their signs.

When factoring a trinomial that is in the format Ax2 Bx C the number that is represented by B should be viewed as the?

The number represented by B should be viewed as the coefficient of the linear term (x) in the trinomial. This number affects the middle term in the factored form of the trinomial.


What is a perfect square trinomial and how is it factored?

A trinomial of the form ax2 + bx + c is a perfect square if (and only if) b2-4ac = 0 and, in that case, it is factored into a*(x + b/2a)2

Ax + Bx + C is not a trinomial!


What is a trinomial give you more example?

A trinomial is a polynomial that consists of three terms, typically expressed in the form ( ax^2 + bx + c ), where ( a ), ( b ), and ( c ) are constants. An example of a trinomial is ( 2x^2 + 3x - 5 ). Another example is ( x^2 - 4x + 4 ). These expressions can often be factored or used in various algebraic operations.


When do you say that a trinomial is a perfect square?

A trinomial is perfect square if it can be factored into the form (a+b)2 So a2 +2ab+b2 would work.


Can a trinomial x2 plus bx plus c where b and c are integers be factored with integer coefficients if its discriminant is 35?

No.


How do you factor polynomials into binomials and trinomials?

Here are the steps to factoring a trinomial of the form x2 + bx + c , with c > 0 . We assume that the coefficients are integers, and that we want to factor into binomials with integer coefficients.Write out all the pairs of numbers which can be multiplied to produce c .Add each pair of numbers to find a pair that produce b when added. Call the numbers in this pair d and e .If b > 0 , then the factored form of the trinomial is (x + d )(x + e) . If b < 0 , then the factored form of the trinomial is (x - d )(x - e) .Check: The binomials, when multiplied, should equal the original trinomial.Note: Some trinomials cannot be factored. If none of the pairs total b , then the trinomial cannot be factored.


How do you find the value of c that makes each trinomial a perfect square?

The answer will depend on what c is!If the trinomial is ax^2 + bx + c then the required value of c is (b^2)/(4a)


What is trinomial perfect?

A trinomial is considered perfect if it can be expressed as the square of a binomial. For example, the trinomial (x^2 + 6x + 9) is a perfect square because it can be factored into ((x + 3)^2). Perfect trinomials typically take the form (a^2 + 2ab + b^2) or (a^2 - 2ab + b^2).


Is 7x² 2x 1 a prime trinomial?

The expression (7x^2 + 2x + 1) is not a prime trinomial because it can be factored. To determine if it's prime, we can check for factors of the form ((ax + b)(cx + d)). In this case, it does not factor neatly into integers, but it can be analyzed further. In conclusion, while it may not have simple integer factors, it is not prime in the algebraic sense as it cannot be simplified into a product of polynomials.
