Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(x−1)+3=13

(5)(x)+(5)(−1)+3=13(Distribute)

5x+−5+3=13

(5x)+(−5+3)=13(Combine Like Terms)

5x+−2=13

5x−2=13

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

5x−2+2=13+2

5x=15

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5x

5

=

Answer: x³-2x²-5x-6=(x-1)*(x-3)*(x+2).

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3-2x^2-5x+6=\\\\x^3-2x^2+x-x-5x+6=\\\\(x^3-2x^2+x)-6x+6=\\\\x*(x^2-2x+1)-6*(x-1)=\\\\x*(x-1)^2-6*(x-1)=\\\\(x-1)*(x*(x-1)-6)=\\\\(x-1)*(x^2-x-6)=\\\\(x-1)*(x^2-x-2x+2x-6)=\\\\(x-1)*(x^2-3x+2x-6)=\\\\(x-1)*(x*(x-3)+2*(x-3))=\\\\(x-1)*(x-3)*(x+2).
