Question

Factor. Check by multiplying. x^2 - 3x

Answer 1

Both term has factor of x

So that would be x² - 3x = x·x - 3·x = x( x-3 )

You can check by distribute x back to x-3:

x( x-3 ) = x·x - 3·x = x² - 3x. So our answer is correct.

Final answer: x( x-3 )

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

X^2-3x

x(x)- 3x

=x(x-3)
