hw #8-6 FACTORING IS FUN... AND EASY!!!

Essentially, we are in REVIEW MODE for Thursday's UNIT 8 TEST!!

SECTION 8-8 FACTORING BY GROUPING IS NOT ON THE TEST!!

The hw posting on MathChamber is up-to-date through the end of the unit.


Remember... ALWAYS LOOK FOR GCF's first... then, if you have a quadratic, give the "SYMMETRY OF THE BOX" a try. Knowing the SPECIALS will save you time, but the BOX will always work.


Watch for some videos this weekend... I am taking "REQUESTS" for specific problems if you get them to me early enough.
