b) 2x3 -x2-15.x+18

Answer:
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2". 1 more similar replacement(s).
(((2 • (x3)) - 7x2) - 10x) + 24
3.1 2x3-7x2-10x+24 is not a perfect cube
Factoring: 2x3-7x2-10x+24
Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :
Group 1: -10x+24
Group 2: 2x3-7x2
Pull out from each group separately :
Group 1: (5x-12) • (-2)
Group 2: (2x-7) • (x2)
Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :
The groups have no common factor and can not be added up to form a multiplication.
Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomial Long Division
Dividing : 2x3-7x2-10x+24
("Dividend")
By : x-4 ("Divisor")
dividend 2x3 - 7x2 - 10x + 24
- divisor * 2x2 2x3 - 8x2
remainder x2 - 10x + 24
- divisor * x1 x2 - 4x
remainder - 6x + 24
- divisor * -6x0 - 6x + 24
remainder 0
Quotient : 2x2+x-6 Remainder: 0
Answer:
a)( x + 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x - 4 )
b)( x - 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x + 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 2 x³ - 7 x² - 10 x + 24
First, we will put it equal to 0:
2 x³ - 7 x² - 10 x + 24 = 0
We can see that this equation is satisfied by x = -2.
So, we get one factor as x + 2.
Dividing 2 x³ - 7 x² - 10 x + 24 by x + 2, we get:
( x + 2 )( 2 x² - 11 x + 12 )
= ( x + 2 )( 2 x² - 8 x - 3 x + 12 )
= ( x + 2 )( 2 x( x - 4) - 3( x - 4 ))
= ( x + 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x - 4 )
b) 2 x³ - x² - 15 x + 18
First, we will put it equal to 0:
2 x³ - x² - 15 x + 18 = 0
It is divisible by: x + 1
Diving it we get,
( x - 2 )( 2 x² + 3 x - 9)
= ( x - 2 )( 2 x² + 6 x - 3 x - 9)
= ( x - 2 )( 2 x ( x + 3) - 3 ( x + 6)
= ( x - 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x + 6)
Therefore, we get ( x + 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x - 4 ) and ( x - 2 )( 2 x - 3 )( x + 6) by factorizing.
