Algebra.Com's Answer #185429 by richwmiller(17219) You can put this solution on YOUR website! 20x^6-7x^5-6x^4-500x^4+175x^3+150x^2 \n" ); document.write( "First take out x^2 \n" ); document.write( "x^2*(20x^4-7x^3-6x^2-500x^2+175x+150) \n" ); document.write( "This conveniently arranged into two parts- notice the x^2 twice -6x^2-500x^2 \n" ); document.write( "20x^4-7x^3-6x^2=x^2(4x-3)(5x+2) \n" ); document.write( "-500x^2+175x+150=-25(4x-3)(5x+2) \n" ); document.write( "so now we have \n" ); document.write( "x^2*(4x-3)(5x+2)(x^2-25) \n" ); document.write( "and finally \n" ); document.write( "x^2*(x-5)*(x+5)*(4x-3)*(5x+2)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
