Daily Update - 11.30

In Algebra today, we put all of our patterns together and learned how to factor a trinomial into two binomials, with the coefficient of the x squared term equal to 1.  We also learned how to factor difference of squares.

Homework is a sheet with a variety of factoring problems, which we started in class.  There are 8 required problems at the top, followed by some harder factoring problems students can try if they'd like a challenge. I'll be posting a video later on tonight which will help you factor those tough ones if you'd like to try them!

Also, there is a factoring quiz on Friday.  Extra credit problems on the test will include rational expressions.  Take advantage of this extra credit opportunity!
