standard_description: Derive the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series (when the common ratio is not 1), and use the formula to solve problems. For example, calculate mortgage payments.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Find the product.
$${(x-3)(x^2-2x+3)}$$
Once we find the product, how would we work backwards to get both factors again?
Problem 2
What is the other factor you would multiply
$${x-2}$$
by to get the polynomial
$${x^4-4x^2-5x+10}$$
?
