Factoring quadratics with a leading coefficient of 1

 is an exercise under the Algebra II Math Mission. This exercise Use the "sum-product" form to factor quadratics of the form $$x^2+bx+c.$$

Types of Problems
There are two types of problem in this exercise:
 * 1) Which equation has the same solutions as ____ = 0 ?: This problem has a quadratic and user is asked to find which equation has the same solutions as it.Factoring quadratics with a leading coefficient of 1.PNG

Strategies
Knowledge of quadratics and factoring them with coefficients are needed for this exercise.
 * 1) Two expressions that equal the same number (0) must be equal to each other.

Real-life Applications

 * 1) Problems like this will appear on standardized tests, like the SATs and ACTs.
