You can put this solution on YOUR website! Factor 20y^3+5y^2-15y
----
Look at the number coefficients: 20,5,-15
The largest common factor for these is 5.
-----------------
Look at the powers of y: y^3, y^2, y
The largest common factor for these is y.
----------------------
So the common factor is 5y
---------------------------------
Factor Form:
= 5y(4y^2+y-3)
= 5y(4y^2+4y-3y-3)
= 5y(4y(y+1)-3(y+1))
= 5y(y+1)(4y-3)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 20y^3+5y^2-15y
solution :
20y^3 +5y^2-15y
here 5y is common
so the equation becomes
5y(4y^2+y-3)
now you have to factor
4y^2+y-3 =4y^2+4y-3y-3
4y(y+1)-3(y+1)
(4y-3)(y+1)
20y^3 +5y^2-15y =5y(4y-3)(y+1)
