a^4+5a^3+6a^2=________________
Answers
Answer:
4 -5a 3 +6a 2
Final result :
a 2 • (a - 2) • (a - 3)
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "a2" was replaced by "a^2". 2 more similar replacement(s).
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
((a 4 ) - (5 • (a 3 ))) + (2•3a 2 )
Step 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2 :
((a 4 ) - 5a 3 ) + (2•3a 2 )
Step 3 :
Step 4 :
Pulling out like terms :
4.1 Pull out like factors :
a 4 - 5a 3 + 6a 2 = a 2 • (a 2 - 5a + 6)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
4.2 Factoring a 2 - 5a + 6
The first term is, a 2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -5a its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is +6
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 6 = 6
Step-2 : Find two factors of 6 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-6 + -1 = -7
-3 + -2 = -5 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -3 and -2
a 2 - 3a - 2a - 6
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
a • (a-3)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (a-3)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(a-2) • (a-3)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
a 2 • (a - 2) • (a - 3)
