Question 300765: . Factor completely. Show work
m^3 - 10m^2 + 25m can some one show me the steps if im taking the group and adding first is that right

Answer by Stitch(470) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given:
First you can factor out an M

Now you need to factor
This can be done by unfoiling the equation
Find the factors of 25: 1,5,5,25
After you find those factors you need to see what adds together to get -10
-5 - 5 = -10
Your equation now becomes
But that was just the part inside the parenthesis
The complete factored equation is:
------------------------------------------
You can also solve for M by setting the equation to 0
Then you can solve for each term.
Since we started with an M^3, there will be 3 answers
(The number of answers is determined by the highest exponent (in this problem it was 3))
---------------

---------------

And yes you can have the same answer more than once
