Describe the process of factoring in your own words. You can either write a paragraph describing the process, or you can list a set of steps to follow.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring an expression is the process of undoing the multiplication.

Assume you have a function f(x):

[tex]f(x)=x^2+2x-48[/tex]

This can be factored:

[tex]f(x)=(x+8)(x-6)[/tex]

Using multiplication and the distributive property, you arrive back to:

[tex]f(x)=x^2+2x-48[/tex]

Then you can see clearly that all we've done is reverse the multiplication.
