Respuesta :

In the same way as you could factor trinomials on the form of

x2+bx+cx2+bx+c

You can factor polynomials on the form of

ax2+bx+cax2+bx+c

If a is positive then you just proceed in the same way as you did previously except now

ax2+bx+c=(x+m)(ax+n)ax2+bx+c=(x+m)(ax+n)

where  c=mn,ac=pq         and b=p+q=am+n
