3x3 – 5x2 – 11x - 3 by (x – 3)
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i assume you gave a polynomial and your question is
should be divided by x-3
Polynomial Long Division
Dividing : 3x3-5x2-11x-3
("Dividend")
By : x-3 ("Divisor")
dividend 3x3 - 5x2 - 11x - 3
- divisor * 3x2 3x3 - 9x2
remainder 4x2 - 11x - 3
- divisor * 4x1 4x2 - 12x
remainder x - 3
- divisor * x0 x - 3
remainder 0
Quotient : 3x2+4x+1 Remainder: 0
Factoring 3x2+4x+1
The first term is, 3x2 its coefficient is 3 .
The middle term is, +4x its coefficient is 4 .
The last term, "the constant", is +1
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 3 • 1 = 3
Step-2 : Find two factors of 3 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 4 .
-3 + -1 = -4
-1 + -3 = -4
1 + 3 = 4 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, 1 and 3
3x2 + 1x + 3x + 1
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (3x+1)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
1 • (3x+1)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x+1) • (3x+1)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(3x + 1) • (x + 1) • (x - 3)
