Factor Quadratics

a = 1, b < 0, c > 0

0. Identify b and c:    b = -5, c = 6


if you already know the factor pair that matches, you can skip to step 2 without finding all factor pairs

2. Since c is positive: add factor pairs to match b

f1 = 2

f2 = 3

note: if no factor pairs match b, then it is not factorable

3. Write pair in factored form. Both subtract since b is negative.

(x - f1)(x - f2)
