  2. Problem 1 NEXT Product: x2 + 6x + 8 Step 1: Place the x2 model in the upper-left region.

  3. Problem 1 There may be more than one possible configuration. Experiment to determine which configuration will allow the appropriate number of x tiles. NEXT Product: x2 + 6x + 8 Step 2: Place the unit models in the lower-right region.

  4. Problem 1 This configuration requires 9x tiles. However, it should only have 6x tiles. NEXT Product: x2 + 6x + 8 Step 3: Determine the number of x models needed to complete the rectangle.

  5. Problem 1 This configuration requires 6x tiles. NEXT Product: x2 + 6x + 8 Try another configuration.

  6. Problem 1 x 4 x + 4 x 2 x2 + 6x + 8 = (x + 4)(x + 2) x + 2 NEXT Product: x2 + 6x + 8 Determine the dimensions.

  7. Problem 1 Another perspective: x2 4x x 4 2x 8 x 2 Notice the four regions. NEXT

  8. Problem 1 Let’s use the four regions as another way to determine the factors of x2 + 6x + 8: NEXT
