Question

A factor of x^3 – 6x^2 – 6x + 1, is?
I will mark as brainliest.

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation is x³ - 6x² - 6x + 1

= x³ - 7x² + x² - 7x + x + 1

= x³ - 7x² + x + x² - 7x + 1

= x(x² - 7x + 1) + (x² - 7x + 1)

= (x + 1)(x² - 7x + 1)

∴ One factor of x³ - 6x² - 6x + 1 is -1.

Hope it helps!
