Question

Factor the expression.

Answer 1

Answer:

5(5k²+6)(4k-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

100k³ - 75k² + 120k - 90

Take 5 common above:

= 5(20k³ - 15k² + 24k - 18) ------- eq1

First let simplify 20k³ - 15k² + 24k - 18

= (20k³ - 15k²) + (24k - 18) ---------eq2

Factor out 6 from 24k - 18 :

6(4k-3)

Factor out 5k² from (20k³ - 15k²):

5k²(4k -3)

eq2 becomes:   = 6(4k-3) + 5k²(4k -3)

Factor out common term 4k-3

(6+ 5k²)(4k -3) or (5k²+6)(4k-3)

Thus eq1 becomes:

5(5k²+6)(4k -3)

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is Option 1. 5(5k² + 6)(4k - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is,

100k³ - 75k² + 120k - 90

Factor the expression

100k³ - 75k² + 120k - 90

= 5[20k³ - 15k² + 24k - 18]   [Taking 5 as common factor]

= 5[ 5k²(4k - 3) + 6(4k - 3) ]

= 5[(4k - 3)(5k² + 6)]

= 5[(5k² + 6) (4k - 3)]

Therefore the correct answer is Option 1. 5(5k² + 6)(4k - 3)
