Question

(08.01, 8.02 MC)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^3 + 10x^2 -4x^2y -20xy

Let's factor out a 2x. So we get :

2x ( x^2 + 5x - 2xy - 10y)      <-- this is part A's answer

Inside the parenthesis, we can factor the left and the right side.

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

So the completely factored answer would be :

2x ( x -2 ) ( x + 5)    <--- this is part B's answer
