We are asked to factor out the expression:
4 x^3 - 10 x
So we extract a factor of "2" from the numerical factors "4" and "10", and also a factor of "x" from each term,leading to:
2 x ( 2 x^2 - 5)
Therefore, please select the first answer option they give you in the list.
Notice that half of the coefficient of x is (1/2)(-4), or -2.
Then x^2 - 4x becomes
x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 = 0, or (x -2)^2 = 4. Then x = -2 plus or minus 2, and the two roots are 0 and -4.
Thus, add 4 to both sides to obtain x^2 - 4x + 4 = 4.
