Question 31733: I wanted to check my homework, to make sure it is correct.
Factor completely x^3-26x^2+48x
1.Reoreder the terms
48x+-26x^2+x^3
2. Solve for x/factor out the GCF
x(48+-26x+x^2
x(2+-1x)(24+-1x)

You're answer is correct, but you should not have reordered the terms, it was already in standard form. Just start by factoring out the x. The correct way it should be written;
x(x-2)(x-24)
=)
