Question 615589: Factor Each Trinomial (if cannot be factored write prime what is the answer to the following
1.5xcubed-40xsquared+80x
2.5sto the fourth=125s

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.5xcubed-40xsquared+80x
= 5x(x^2-8x+16)
= 5x(x-4)(x-4)
===============================
2.5sto the fourth=125s
5s^4-125s = 0
----
5s(s^3-25) = 0
s = 0 or s = 25^(1/3)
============================
cheers,
