Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Step 2 :
Pulling out like terms :
2.1 Pull out like factors :
x6 - x5 + x4 - x3 + x2 - x =
x • (x5 - x4 + x3 - x2 + x - 1)
2.2 Factor x5 - x4 + x3 - x2 + x - 1
Try to factor this 6-term polynomial into (2-term) • (3-term)
Begin by splitting the 6-term into two 3-term polynomials:
-x2 + x - 1 and x5 - x4 + x3
Next simplify each 3-term polynomial by pulling out like terms:
-1 • (x2 - x + 1) and x3 • (x2 - x + 1)
Note that the two simplified polynomials have x2 - x + 1 in common
Now adding the two simplified polynomials we get
(x3 - 1) • (x2 - x + 1)
Which is the desired factorization.
