Explain How do you find factors of the polynomial

Mathematics
1 answer:
balandron [24]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"For a polynomial, no matter how many terms it has, always check for a greatest common factor (GCF) first. Literally, the greatest common factor is the biggest expression that will go into all of the terms. Using the GCF is like doing the distributive property backward.

If the equation is a trinomial — it has three terms — you can use the FOIL method for multiplying binomials backward.

If it’s a binomial, look for difference of squares, difference of cubes, or sum of cubes.

Finally, after the polynomial is fully factored, you can use the zero product property to solve the equation."

Which choice represents the expanded form of the expression (x- 2)3
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

(x−2)^3=x^3−6x^2+12x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

if you are talking about the binomial  (x−2)^3   you must expand then simplify. (x-2)3 you would just remove the parenthesizes and multiply -2 with 3 to get x-6 but I think you meant (x-2)^3

Solve 2x2 + x − 4 = 0.<br><br><br> x^2 + ____x+____ = 0
alisha [4.7K]

Kate: Please, for clarity, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: 2x^2 + x − 4 = 0


And please include the instructions.


2x^2 + x − 4 = 0 can be re-written: 2(x^2 + (1/2)x - 2) = 0


Dividing both sides by 2 results in x^2 + (1/2)x - 2 = 0


Let's "complete the square:" x^2 + (1/2)x + (1/4)^2 - (1/4)^2 = 0


Then (x+(1/4))^2 = (1/4)^2


Taking the sqrt of both sides: x+1/4 = plus or minus 1/4


Solving for x: x = -1/4 plus or minus 1/4


Solving for x (continued): x = 0 and x = -1/2
