Question

Factorize x³-3x²-10x​

Answer 1

x³ - 3x² - 10x

Taking x as common factor,

x (x² - 3x - 10)

⇒x (x² + 2x - 5x - 10)

⇒x (x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2))

⇒x (x - 5) (x + 2)

Therefore, the factors are:

1. x
2. x - 5
3. x + 2

Answer 2

Answer:

x(x-5)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the quadratic in the brackets can be

factorise by splitting the middle term

so

x(x²-3x-10)

x(x²-5x+2x-10)

x(x(x-5)+2(x-5))

x(x-5)(x+2)

hence the factor is x(x-5)(x+2)
