| Can you use the factoring by grouping method when a=1? Or only when a≠1? |

Dear lord I don't want to ever factor polynomials again.
Save me, geometry.

I figured it out. You cannot, as there will not be big enough numbers to factor. Eg. a=1 b^2+8b+7 Eg. A≠1 8r^3-64r^2+r-8
Now, how do you do the a=1 question?
