### Algebraic Factoring Problems
**Factor each completely:**
5) \( v^2 + 2v - 15 \)
Factorization: \( (v - 3)(v + 5) \)
7) \( p^2 - 5p + 6 \)
Factorization: \( (p - 2)(p - 3) \)
9) \( 15m^2 + 21m + 6 \)
11) \( 2n^2 + 11n + 12 \)
13) \( 4p^2 + 4p - 15 \)
15) \( 4b^2 - 5b + 1 \)
### Explanation
The objective is to factor each quadratic expression completely. Factoring is the process of breaking down an expression into a product of simpler expressions, usually two binomials for quadratic expressions.
For problems 5 and 7, the factors are provided. In each case, these factors are binomials that, when multiplied, yield the original expression.
Problems 9, 11, 13, and 15 are presented for factorization practice without given solutions. The goal would be to find two binomials that multiply to give the original quadratic expression.
When factoring, look for pairs of numbers that both add or subtract to give the middle coefficient (linear term) and multiply to give the constant term (last term).
