Answer:
x3 + 13x2 + 32x + 20 = (x + 1)(x2 + 12x + 20) = (x + 1) (x2 +
10x + 2x + 20) = (x + 1)[x(x + 10) + 2(x + 10)] = (x + 1) (x +2) (x + 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p(x) = x3+13x2+32x+20
Factors of 20 are ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10 and ±20
By trial method, we find that
p(-1) = 0
So, (x+1) is factor of p(x)
Now,
p(x)= x3 + 13x2 + 32x + 20
p(-1) = (-1)3 + 13(-1)2 + 32(-1) + 20
p(-1) = −1 + 13 – 32 + 20
p(-1) = 0
Therefore, (x+1) is the factor of p(x).
(x + 1)(x2 + 12x + 20) = (x + 1)(x2 + 2x + 10x + 20)
= (x +1)x(x + 2) + 10(x + 2)
= (x +1)(x + 2)(x + 10)
Thus answer is (x +1)(x + 2)(x + 10)
