Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

(x+2) ( x^2 + 3)

Discussion:

x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x + 6 =  

( x^3 + 2x^2) + (3x + 6) =         => factor "x^2" from the first term; factor 3

                                                    from the second term

x^2( x + 2) + 3( x+2)  =             => factor (x+2) from each term

(x+2) ( x^2 + 3)

Thank you,

MrB

Answer:

(x+2)(x²+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given an expression.

x³+2x²+3x+6

We have to factor by using grouping method.

Making two groups of two terms that has any common factor, we have

(x³+2x²)+(3x+6)

Since x² is common factor in first parentheses and 3 is common in second parentheses.

taking common, we have

x²(x+2)+3(x+2)

Taking x+2 as common, we have

(x+2)(x²+3)  

Hence, x³+2x²+3x+6 has two factors (x+2) and (x²+3).

mixer [17]

Answer:D

Step-by-step explanation:

This is combination.

If 4 books selected out of eight book in the shelf:

(4 combination 8)= 70

For hardback selection:

Then selection of 4 books out of the hardback, it means there is no paperbach will be:

(4 combination 6)= 15

So , if at least one paperback selected will be : 70-15

That is 55
