a. Factoring - since the it can be factored to (3x - 5)(3x + 5) by Binomial Theorem. b. Factoring - binomial theorem is also applied (2x - 11)(2x + 11) c. Quadratic Equation - can not be factored easily d. Factoring - can be factored (2x - 7)(x + 4) e. Factoring - can be factored (2x + 3)(2x + 5) f. Factoring - can be factored (2x - 3)(2x + 5)
