In this case we have a common factor of x, so we can factor out an x

Now we can factor the quadratic in the parenthesis
ERROR Algebra::Solver::Engine::invoke_solver_noengine: solver not defined for name 'quadratic_factoring'.

Error occurred executing solver 'quadratic_factoring' .

So the quadratic in the parenthesis factors to this:

Now our factored polynomial looks like this

Notice if we foil the terms and distribute the x we get again
