Factorization by Middle Term Splitting
Factorization by Middle Term Splitting:
Factorization of quadratic ploynomials in one Variables:
Let us now consider the polynomial .
Compairing this with polynomial , we get a + b = -7 and ab = 12.
Now, we have to find factors of 12 whose sum is -7.
Since a + b is negative abd ab is positive. Therefore, a and b both must negative
Clearly, such factos are -3 and -4.
Hence, the factors of are (y - 3) and ( y - 4 ).
Algorithm:
Step I Obtain the quadratic polynomial .
Step II Obtain p = coefficient of x and, q = constant term.
Step III Find two numbers a and b such that a + b = p and ab = q.
Step IV Split up the middle term as the sum of two terms ax and bx.
Step V Factorize the expression obtained in step IV by grouping the terms.
Example: Factorize each of the following expressions:
Solution (i) In order to factorize , we find two numbers p and q such that
p + q + 6 and pq = 8
Clealry, 2 + 4 = 6 and 2 4 = 8.
We now split the middle term 6x in the given quadratic as 2x + 4x.
(ii) In order to factorize , we have to find two numbers p and q such that
p + q = 4 and pq = -21
Clearly, 7 + (-3) = 4 and 7 -3 = -21
We now split the middle term 4x of as 7x - 3x
(iii) In order to factorize we have to find two numbers p and q such that
p + q = -7 and pq = 10
Clearly, - 5- 2 = -7 and -5 -2 = 10
We now split the middle term -7x of the given quadratic as -2x - 5x

8thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Shivam Rana
7thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice

10thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.

8thIt was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.

10thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
