Step-by-step explanation:
x³ - 3x² - 9x - 5
= x³ + x² - 4x² - 4x - 5x - 5
= x²( x + 1) - 4x ( x + 1) - 5(x + 1)
= (x + 1)(x² - 4x - 5)
= (x + 1)(x² -5x + x - 5)
= (x + 1)(x - 5) (x + 1)
Hence, (x +1), (x -5) and (x +1) are the factors of given polynomial.

Answer:
x³-3x²-9x-5
lets try with x+1 as a factor
x+1=0
x=-1
(-1)³-3(-1)²-9(-1)-5
= -1-3+9-5
= -9+9 = 0
since we get 0, (x+1) is a factor
Now by long division method when we divide
(x³-3x²-9x-5) and (x+1)
we get
(x²-4x-5)
now let's factorize this expression using factorization method.
(x²-4x-5)
can be written as
x²+x-5x-5
let's take common terms now,
x(x+1)-5(x+1)
THE FACTORS ARE (x-5)(x+1)
The factors are/The answer you wanted is
(x+1)(x+1)(x-5)
Tada!You got your answer
