Question

Factor the expression completely. 6×3- 4×2 – 16x A. 0 B. 2x(3×2 – 2x – 8) C. 2x(3x + 4)(x – 2) D. 4x(2x + 1)(x – 4) E. 2x(2×2 + 7x – 4) ill give brainliest

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

6x³ - 4x² - 16x

To factorize the expression first factor out the GCF out

The GCF in the expression is 2x

That's

2x( 3x² - 2x - 8)

Next Factorize the terms in the bracket

To factorize write - 2x as a difference

that's

2x( 3x² + 4x - 6x - 8)

Factor out x from the expression

2x [ x( 3x + 4) - 6x - 8 ]

Next factor out - 2 from the expression

2x [ x ( 3x + 4) - 2( 3x + 4) ]

Factor out 3x + 4 from the expression

We have the final answer as

2x( 3x + 4)( x - 2)

Hope this helps you
