0:00:00.000,0:00:00.360 0:00:00.360,0:00:03.870 In this video I want to do a[br]bunch of examples of factoring 0:00:03.870,0:00:06.590 a second degree polynomial,[br]which is 0:00:06.590,0:00:08.870 often called a quadratic. 0:00:08.870,0:00:12.650 Sometimes a quadratic[br]polynomial, or just a 0:00:12.650,0:00:15.850 quadratic itself, or quadratic[br]expression, but all it means 0:00:15.850,0:00:18.300 is a second degree polynomial. 0:00:18.300,0:00:22.440 So something that's going to[br]have a variable raised to the 0:00:22.440,0:00:23.080 second power. 0:00:23.080,0:00:26.460 In this case, in all of the[br]examples we'll do, it'll be x. 0:00:26.460,0:00:30.740 So let's say I have the[br]quadratic expression, x 0:00:30.740,0:00:35.280 squared plus 10x, plus 9. 0:00:35.280,0:00:39.870 And I want to factor it into the[br]product of two binomials. 0:00:39.870,0:00:41.520 How do we do that? 0:00:41.520,0:00:44.440 Well, let's just think about[br]what happens if we were to 0:00:44.440,0:00:51.690 take x plus a, and multiply[br]that by x plus b. 0:00:51.690,0:00:55.050 If we were to multiply these[br]two things, what happens? 0:00:55.050,0:00:57.090 Well, we have a little bit[br]of experience doing this. 0:00:57.090,0:01:03.170 This will be x times x, which is[br]x squared, plus x times b, 0:01:03.170,0:01:12.690 which is bx, plus a times x,[br]plus a times b-- plus ab. 0:01:12.690,0:01:15.800 Or if we want to add these two[br]in the middle right here, 0:01:15.800,0:01:18.890 because they're both[br]coefficients of x. 0:01:18.890,0:01:22.102 We could right this as x squared[br]plus-- I can write it 0:01:22.102,0:01:29.700 as b plus a, or a plus[br]b, x, plus ab. 0:01:29.700,0:01:34.390 So in general, if we assume that[br]this is the product of 0:01:34.390,0:01:40.765 two binomials, we see that this[br]middle coefficient on the 0:01:40.765,0:01:43.250 x term, or you could say the[br]first degree coefficient 0:01:43.250,0:01:49.040 there, that's going to be[br]the sum of our a and b. 0:01:49.040,0:01:51.360 And then the constant term is[br]going to be the product 0:01:51.360,0:01:52.520 of our a and b. 0:01:52.520,0:01:57.290 Notice, this would map[br]to this, and this 0:01:57.290,0:01:58.790 would map to this. 0:01:58.790,0:02:02.600 And, of course, this is the[br]same thing as this. 0:02:02.600,0:02:05.590 So can we somehow pattern[br]match this to that? 0:02:05.590,0:02:14.060 Is there some a and b where[br]a plus b is equal to 10? 0:02:14.060,0:02:22.070 And a times b is equal to 9? 0:02:22.070,0:02:23.850 Well, let's just think about[br]it a little bit. 0:02:23.850,0:02:25.470 What are the factors of 9? 0:02:25.470,0:02:27.770 What are the things that a[br]and b could be equal to? 0:02:27.770,0:02:29.170 And we're assuming that[br]everything is an integer. 0:02:29.170,0:02:32.350 And normally when we're[br]factoring, especially when 0:02:32.350,0:02:33.950 we're beginning to factor,[br]we're dealing 0:02:33.950,0:02:35.580 with integer numbers. 0:02:35.580,0:02:37.080 So what are the factors of 9? 0:02:37.080,0:02:40.730 They're 1, 3, and 9. 0:02:40.730,0:02:45.000 So this could be a 3 and a 3,[br]or it could be a 1 and a 9. 0:02:45.000,0:02:48.630 Now, if it's a 3 and a 3, then[br]you'll have 3 plus 3-- that 0:02:48.630,0:02:49.840 doesn't equal 10. 0:02:49.840,0:02:53.760 But if it's a 1 and a[br]9, 1 times 9 is 9. 0:02:53.760,0:02:56.670 1 plus 9 is 10. 0:02:56.670,0:02:57.570 So it does work. 0:02:57.570,0:03:04.190 So a could be equal to 1, and[br]b could be equal to 9. 0:03:04.190,0:03:08.920 So we could factor this[br]as being x plus 1, 0:03:08.920,0:03:12.970 times x plus 9. 0:03:12.970,0:03:15.850 And if you multiply these two[br]out, using the skills we 0:03:15.850,0:03:18.970 developed in the last few[br]videos, you'll see that it is 0:03:18.970,0:03:22.880 indeed x squared plus[br]10x, plus 9. 0:03:22.880,0:03:25.150 So when you see something like[br]this, when the coefficient on 0:03:25.150,0:03:28.070 the x squared term, or the[br]leading coefficient on this 0:03:28.070,0:03:31.650 quadratic is a 1, you can just[br]say, all right, what two 0:03:31.650,0:03:34.530 numbers add up to this[br]coefficient right here? 0:03:34.530,0:03:37.720 0:03:37.720,0:03:39.870 And those same two numbers, when[br]you take their product, 0:03:39.870,0:03:41.660 have to be equal to 9. 0:03:41.660,0:03:43.510 And of course, this has to[br]be in standard form. 0:03:43.510,0:03:46.000 Or if it's not in standard form,[br]you should put it in 0:03:46.000,0:03:48.500 that form, so that you can[br]always say, OK, whatever's on 0:03:48.500,0:03:51.530 the first degree coefficient,[br]my a and b 0:03:51.530,0:03:52.300 have to add to that. 0:03:52.300,0:03:55.890 Whatever's my constant term, my[br]a times b, the product has 0:03:55.890,0:03:56.370 to be that. 0:03:56.370,0:03:58.150 Let's do several[br]more examples. 0:03:58.150,0:04:00.510 I think the more examples[br]we do the more 0:04:00.510,0:04:02.630 sense this'll make. 0:04:02.630,0:04:08.700 Let's say we had x squared[br]plus 10x, plus-- well, I 0:04:08.700,0:04:11.100 already did 10x, let's do a[br]different number-- x squared 0:04:11.100,0:04:15.366 plus 15x, plus 50. 0:04:15.366,0:04:17.470 And we want to factor this. 0:04:17.470,0:04:20.339 Well, same drill. 0:04:20.339,0:04:22.600 We have an x squared term. 0:04:22.600,0:04:25.130 We have a first degree term. 0:04:25.130,0:04:27.960 This right here should be[br]the sum of two numbers. 0:04:27.960,0:04:30.620 And then this term, the constant[br]term right here, 0:04:30.620,0:04:32.870 should be the product[br]of two numbers. 0:04:32.870,0:04:35.640 So we need to think of two[br]numbers that, when I multiply 0:04:35.640,0:04:39.220 them I get 50, and when[br]I add them, I get 15. 0:04:39.220,0:04:41.910 And this is going to be a bit of[br]an art that you're going to 0:04:41.910,0:04:44.530 develop, but the more practice[br]you do, you're going to see 0:04:44.530,0:04:45.730 that it'll start to[br]come naturally. 0:04:45.730,0:04:47.330 So what could a and b be? 0:04:47.330,0:04:48.975 Let's think about the[br]factors of 50. 0:04:48.975,0:04:52.230 It could be 1 times 50. 0:04:52.230,0:04:55.072 2 times 25. 0:04:55.072,0:04:57.520 Let's see, 4 doesn't[br]go into 50. 0:04:57.520,0:05:02.450 It could be 5 times 10. 0:05:02.450,0:05:03.580 I think that's all of them. 0:05:03.580,0:05:05.920 Let's try out these numbers,[br]and see if any of 0:05:05.920,0:05:07.310 these add up to 15. 0:05:07.310,0:05:12.630 So 1 plus 50 does not[br]add up to 15. 0:05:12.630,0:05:16.160 2 plus 25 does not[br]add up to 15. 0:05:16.160,0:05:19.260 But 5 plus 10 does[br]add up to 15. 0:05:19.260,0:05:24.280 So this could be 5 plus 10, and[br]this could be 5 times 10. 0:05:24.280,0:05:28.760 So if we were to factor this,[br]this would be equal to x plus 0:05:28.760,0:05:32.630 5, times x plus 10. 0:05:32.630,0:05:33.840 And multiply it out. 0:05:33.840,0:05:36.710 I encourage you to multiply this[br]out, and see that this is 0:05:36.710,0:05:39.660 indeed x squared plus[br]15x, plus 10. 0:05:39.660,0:05:43.320 In fact, let's do it. x[br]times x, x squared. x 0:05:43.320,0:05:45.800 times 10, plus 10x. 0:05:45.800,0:05:48.600 5 times x, plus 5x. 0:05:48.600,0:05:51.620 5 times 10, plus 50. 0:05:51.620,0:05:55.220 Notice, the 5 times[br]10 gave us the 50. 0:05:55.220,0:06:00.890 The 5x plus the 10x is giving[br]us the 15x in between. 0:06:00.890,0:06:06.560 So it's x squared plus[br]15x, plus 50. 0:06:06.560,0:06:09.440 Let's up the stakes a little[br]bit, introduce some negative 0:06:09.440,0:06:11.040 signs in here. 0:06:11.040,0:06:18.890 Let's say I had x squared[br]minus 11x, plus 24. 0:06:18.890,0:06:21.610 Now, it's the exact[br]same principle. 0:06:21.610,0:06:24.580 I need to think of two numbers,[br]that when I add them, 0:06:24.580,0:06:26.570 need to be equal[br]to negative 11. 0:06:26.570,0:06:30.150 a plus b need to be equal[br]to negative 11. 0:06:30.150,0:06:37.900 And a times b need to[br]be equal to 24. 0:06:37.900,0:06:41.290 Now, there's something for[br]you to think about. 0:06:41.290,0:06:43.960 When I multiply both of these[br]numbers, I'm getting a 0:06:43.960,0:06:45.080 positive number. 0:06:45.080,0:06:46.960 I'm getting a 24. 0:06:46.960,0:06:50.260 That means that both of these[br]need to be positive, or both 0:06:50.260,0:06:51.380 of these need to be negative. 0:06:51.380,0:06:55.050 That's the only way I'm going to[br]get a positive number here. 0:06:55.050,0:06:58.290 Now, if when I add them, I get[br]a negative number, if these 0:06:58.290,0:07:00.720 were positive, there's no way I[br]can add two positive numbers 0:07:00.720,0:07:03.280 and get a negative number, so[br]the fact that their sum is 0:07:03.280,0:07:05.750 negative, and the fact that[br]their product is positive, 0:07:05.750,0:07:10.420 tells me that both a[br]and b are negative. 0:07:10.420,0:07:13.200 a and b have to be negative. 0:07:13.200,0:07:15.730 Remember, one can't be negative[br]and the other one 0:07:15.730,0:07:18.710 can't be positive, because the[br]product would be negative. 0:07:18.710,0:07:22.687 And they both can't be positive,[br]because when you add 0:07:22.687,0:07:24.520 them it would get you[br]a positive number. 0:07:24.520,0:07:27.500 So let's just think about[br]what a and b can be. 0:07:27.500,0:07:28.990 So two negative numbers. 0:07:28.990,0:07:31.260 So let's think about[br]the factors of 24. 0:07:31.260,0:07:33.140 And we'll kind of have to think[br]of the negative factors. 0:07:33.140,0:07:44.670 But let me see, it could be 1[br]times 24, 2 times 11, 3 times 0:07:44.670,0:07:48.070 8, or 4 times 6. 0:07:48.070,0:07:51.220 Now, which of these when I[br]multiply these-- well, 0:07:51.220,0:07:54.380 obviously when I multiply[br]1 times 24, I get 24. 0:07:54.380,0:07:58.910 When I get 2 times 11-- sorry,[br]this is 2 times 12. 0:07:58.910,0:07:59.790 I get 24. 0:07:59.790,0:08:03.090 So we know that all these,[br]the products are 24. 0:08:03.090,0:08:07.470 But which two of these, which[br]two factors, when I add them, 0:08:07.470,0:08:08.790 should I get 11? 0:08:08.790,0:08:09.880 And then we could say,[br]let's take the 0:08:09.880,0:08:11.450 negative of both of those. 0:08:11.450,0:08:15.470 So when you look at these,[br]3 and 8 jump out. 0:08:15.470,0:08:19.150 3 times 8 is equal to 24. 0:08:19.150,0:08:22.810 3 plus 8 is equal to 11. 0:08:22.810,0:08:24.680 But that doesn't quite[br]work out, right? 0:08:24.680,0:08:26.510 Because we have a negative[br]11 here. 0:08:26.510,0:08:29.690 But what if we did negative[br]3 and negative 8? 0:08:29.690,0:08:37.789 Negative 3 times negative 8[br]is equal to positive 24. 0:08:37.789,0:08:43.580 Negative 3 plus negative 8[br]is equal to negative 11. 0:08:43.580,0:08:46.600 So negative 3 and[br]negative 8 work. 0:08:46.600,0:08:53.840 So if we factor this, x squared[br]minus 11x, plus 24 is 0:08:53.840,0:09:02.940 going to be equal to x minus[br]3, times x minus 8. 0:09:02.940,0:09:06.270 Let's do another[br]one like that. 0:09:06.270,0:09:08.330 Actually, let's mix it[br]up a little bit. 0:09:08.330,0:09:19.810 Let's say I had x squared[br]plus 5x, minus 14. 0:09:19.810,0:09:21.770 So here we have a different[br]situation. 0:09:21.770,0:09:26.460 The product of my two numbers is[br]negative, right? a times b 0:09:26.460,0:09:28.190 is equal to negative 14. 0:09:28.190,0:09:29.920 My product is negative. 0:09:29.920,0:09:32.930 That tells me that one of them[br]is positive, and one of them 0:09:32.930,0:09:33.910 is negative. 0:09:33.910,0:09:39.200 And when I add the two, a plus[br]b, it'd be equal to 5. 0:09:39.200,0:09:41.360 So let's think about[br]the factors of 14. 0:09:41.360,0:09:44.300 And what combinations of them,[br]when I add them, if one is 0:09:44.300,0:09:46.560 positive and one is negative,[br]or I'm really kind of taking 0:09:46.560,0:09:49.780 the difference of the[br]two, do I get 5? 0:09:49.780,0:09:53.450 So if I take 1 and 14-- I'm just[br]going to try out things-- 0:09:53.450,0:10:01.820 1 and 14, negative 1 plus[br]14 is negative 13. 0:10:01.820,0:10:04.260 Negative 1 plus 14 is 13. 0:10:04.260,0:10:07.430 So let me write all of the[br]combinations that I could do. 0:10:07.430,0:10:09.440 And eventually your brain[br]will just zone in on it. 0:10:09.440,0:10:16.490 So you've got negative 1[br]plus 14 is equal to 13. 0:10:16.490,0:10:20.460 And 1 plus negative 14 is[br]equal to negative 13. 0:10:20.460,0:10:21.380 So those don't work. 0:10:21.380,0:10:22.950 That doesn't equal 5. 0:10:22.950,0:10:24.860 Now what about 2 and 7? 0:10:24.860,0:10:29.600 If I do negative 2-- let me do[br]this in a different color-- if 0:10:29.600,0:10:35.290 I do negative 2 plus 7,[br]that is equal to 5. 0:10:35.290,0:10:35.750 We're done! 0:10:35.750,0:10:36.670 That worked! 0:10:36.670,0:10:39.440 I mean, we could have tried 2[br]plus negative 7, but that'd be 0:10:39.440,0:10:41.070 equal to negative 5, so that[br]wouldn't have worked. 0:10:41.070,0:10:42.960 But negative 2 plus 7 works. 0:10:42.960,0:10:46.590 And negative 2 times[br]7 is negative 14. 0:10:46.590,0:10:47.600 So there we have it. 0:10:47.600,0:10:53.210 We know it's x minus[br]2, times x plus 7. 0:10:53.210,0:10:54.330 That's pretty neat. 0:10:54.330,0:10:56.950 Negative 2 times 7[br]is negative 14. 0:10:56.950,0:11:00.880 Negative 2 plus 7[br]is positive 5. 0:11:00.880,0:11:03.760 0:11:03.760,0:11:07.680 Let's do several more of these,[br]just to really get well 0:11:07.680,0:11:09.520 honed this skill. 0:11:09.520,0:11:16.360 So let's say we have x squared[br]minus x, minus 56. 0:11:16.360,0:11:19.570 So the product of the two[br]numbers have to be minus 56, 0:11:19.570,0:11:21.620 have to be negative 56. 0:11:21.620,0:11:24.430 And their difference, because[br]one is going to be positive, 0:11:24.430,0:11:26.280 and one is going to be[br]negative, right? 0:11:26.280,0:11:28.350 Their difference has[br]to be negative 1. 0:11:28.350,0:11:30.130 And the numbers that immediately[br]jump out in my 0:11:30.130,0:11:31.900 brain-- and I don't know if they[br]jump out in your brain, 0:11:31.900,0:11:33.740 we just learned this in[br]the times tables-- 0:11:33.740,0:11:36.480 56 is 8 times 7. 0:11:36.480,0:11:37.480 I mean, there's other numbers. 0:11:37.480,0:11:39.950 It's also 28 times 2. 0:11:39.950,0:11:41.140 It's all sorts of things. 0:11:41.140,0:11:44.300 But 8 times 7 really jumped[br]out into my brain, because 0:11:44.300,0:11:45.470 they're very close[br]to each other. 0:11:45.470,0:11:47.730 And we need numbers that are[br]very close to each other. 0:11:47.730,0:11:50.430 And one of these has to be[br]positive, and one of these has 0:11:50.430,0:11:51.810 to be negative. 0:11:51.810,0:11:55.250 Now, the fact that when their[br]sum is negative, tells me that 0:11:55.250,0:11:58.460 the larger of these two should[br]probably be negative. 0:11:58.460,0:12:01.350 So if we take negative[br]8 times 7, that's 0:12:01.350,0:12:03.320 equal to negative 56. 0:12:03.320,0:12:08.470 And then if we take negative[br]8 plus 7, that is equal to 0:12:08.470,0:12:12.100 negative 1, which is exactly the[br]coefficient right there. 0:12:12.100,0:12:16.490 So when I factor this, this[br]is going to be x minus 8, 0:12:16.490,0:12:18.690 times x plus 7. 0:12:18.690,0:12:21.695 This is often one of the hardest[br]concepts people learn 0:12:21.695,0:12:23.920 in algebra, because it[br]is a bit of an art. 0:12:23.920,0:12:26.710 You have to look at all of the[br]factors here, play with the 0:12:26.710,0:12:29.710 positive and negative signs,[br]see which of those factors 0:12:29.710,0:12:31.900 when one is positive, one is[br]negative, add up to the 0:12:31.900,0:12:33.590 coefficient on the x term. 0:12:33.590,0:12:35.860 But as you do more and more[br]practice, you'll see that 0:12:35.860,0:12:39.280 it'll become a bit[br]of second nature. 0:12:39.280,0:12:42.350 Now let's step up the stakes[br]a little bit more. 0:12:42.350,0:12:46.140 Let's say we had negative x[br]squared-- everything we've 0:12:46.140,0:12:49.040 done so far had a positive[br]coefficient, a positive 1 0:12:49.040,0:12:50.690 coefficient on the[br]x squared term. 0:12:50.690,0:12:55.590 But let's say we had a[br]negative x squared 0:12:55.590,0:12:59.440 minus 5x, plus 24. 0:12:59.440,0:13:00.910 How do we do this? 0:13:00.910,0:13:03.420 Well, the easiest way I can[br]think of doing it is factor 0:13:03.420,0:13:05.670 out a negative 1, and then it[br]becomes just like the problems 0:13:05.670,0:13:07.260 we've been doing before. 0:13:07.260,0:13:11.660 So this is the same thing as[br]negative 1 times positive x 0:13:11.660,0:13:15.990 squared, plus 5x, minus 24. 0:13:15.990,0:13:16.300 Right? 0:13:16.300,0:13:18.080 I just factored a[br]negative 1 out. 0:13:18.080,0:13:20.180 You can multiply negative 1[br]times all of these, and you'll 0:13:20.180,0:13:21.690 see it becomes this. 0:13:21.690,0:13:23.555 Or you could factor the negative[br]1 out and divide all 0:13:23.555,0:13:25.000 of these by negative 1. 0:13:25.000,0:13:26.760 And you get that right there. 0:13:26.760,0:13:29.360 Now, same game as before. 0:13:29.360,0:13:33.510 I need two numbers, that when[br]I take their product I get 0:13:33.510,0:13:34.690 negative 24. 0:13:34.690,0:13:37.125 So one will be positive,[br]one will be negative. 0:13:37.125,0:13:41.550 0:13:41.550,0:13:43.770 When I take their sum,[br]it's going to be 5. 0:13:43.770,0:13:48.850 So let's think about[br]24 is 1 and 24. 0:13:48.850,0:13:55.750 Let's see, if this is negative 1[br]and 24, it'd be positive 23, 0:13:55.750,0:13:57.540 if it was the other way around,[br]it'd be negative 23. 0:13:57.540,0:13:58.500 Doesn't work. 0:13:58.500,0:14:01.210 What about 2 and 12? 0:14:01.210,0:14:04.530 Well, if this is negative--[br]remember, one of these has to 0:14:04.530,0:14:05.040 be negative. 0:14:05.040,0:14:07.570 If the 2 is negative, their[br]sum would be 10. 0:14:07.570,0:14:09.750 If the 12 is negative, their[br]sum would be negative 10. 0:14:09.750,0:14:11.300 Still doesn't work. 0:14:11.300,0:14:13.290 3 and 8. 0:14:13.290,0:14:16.850 If the 3 is negative,[br]their sum will be 5. 0:14:16.850,0:14:17.910 So it works! 0:14:17.910,0:14:24.620 So if we pick negative 3 and[br]8, negative 3 and 8 work. 0:14:24.620,0:14:26.630 Because negative[br]3 plus 8 is 5. 0:14:26.630,0:14:29.510 Negative 3 times 8[br]is negative 24. 0:14:29.510,0:14:31.640 So this is going to be equal[br]to-- can't forget that 0:14:31.640,0:14:35.230 negative 1 out front, and then[br]we factor the inside. 0:14:35.230,0:14:42.990 Negative 1 times x minus[br]3, times x plus 8. 0:14:42.990,0:14:44.800 And if you really wanted to,[br]you could multiply the 0:14:44.800,0:14:46.450 negative 1 times this,[br]you would get 3 0:14:46.450,0:14:47.560 minus x if you did. 0:14:47.560,0:14:48.810 Or you don't have to. 0:14:48.810,0:14:51.810 0:14:51.810,0:14:53.220 Let's do one more of these. 0:14:53.220,0:14:56.060 The more practice, the[br]better, I think. 0:14:56.060,0:15:01.630 All right, let's say I had[br]negative x squared 0:15:01.630,0:15:06.690 plus 18x, minus 72. 0:15:06.690,0:15:09.320 So once again, I like to factor[br]out the negative 1. 0:15:09.320,0:15:13.040 So this is equal to negative[br]1 times x squared, 0:15:13.040,0:15:16.910 minus 18x, plus 72. 0:15:16.910,0:15:19.650 Now we just have to think of[br]two numbers, that when I 0:15:19.650,0:15:22.330 multiply them I get[br]positive 72. 0:15:22.330,0:15:24.480 So they have to be[br]the same sign. 0:15:24.480,0:15:26.930 And that makes it easier in our[br]head, at least in my head. 0:15:26.930,0:15:29.260 When I multiply them,[br]I get positive 72. 0:15:29.260,0:15:32.040 When I add them, I[br]get negative 18. 0:15:32.040,0:15:34.410 So they're the same sign, and[br]their sum is a negative 0:15:34.410,0:15:36.470 number, they both must[br]be negative. 0:15:36.470,0:15:41.470 0:15:41.470,0:15:43.790 And we could go through all[br]of the factors of 72. 0:15:43.790,0:15:48.510 But the one that springs up,[br]maybe you think of 8 times 9, 0:15:48.510,0:15:53.270 but 8 times 9, or negative 8[br]minus 9, or negative 8 plus 0:15:53.270,0:15:55.210 negative 9, doesn't work. 0:15:55.210,0:15:58.060 That turns into 17. 0:15:58.060,0:15:58.860 That was close. 0:15:58.860,0:15:59.560 Let me show you that. 0:15:59.560,0:16:04.400 Negative 9 plus negative 8, that[br]is equal to negative 17. 0:16:04.400,0:16:06.140 Close, but no cigar. 0:16:06.140,0:16:06.990 So what other ones are there? 0:16:06.990,0:16:08.005 We have 6 and 12. 0:16:08.005,0:16:09.705 That actually seems[br]pretty good. 0:16:09.705,0:16:13.710 If we have negative 6 plus[br]negative 12, that is equal to 0:16:13.710,0:16:15.360 negative 18. 0:16:15.360,0:16:16.590 Notice, it's a bit of an art. 0:16:16.590,0:16:18.810 You have to try the different[br]factors here. 0:16:18.810,0:16:22.360 So this will become negative[br]1-- don't want to forget 0:16:22.360,0:16:29.440 that-- times x minus 6,[br]times x minus 12. 0:16:29.440,0:16:29.866
