To trinomial is in form

In order to factor, find two numbers whose procuct is , in this case , and whose sum is , in this case

Factors of :

Which of these pairs has a sum of ?

and

Therefore the factored form of is:

Our factors will need to have a product of , and a sum of , so our factors must be and .

We must begin by factoring out from each term.

Next, we must find two numbers that sum to and multiply to .

Thus, our final answer is:
