Answer:

(x - 1)(x + 1)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 - 2x^2 - x + 2

  • Take x² common from first two terms.

=> x^2(x - 2) -1(x - 2)

  • Take (x - 2) common from whole expression.

=> (x - 2)(x^2 - 1)

  • Factorise (x² - 1) by using the identity → (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b)

=> (x - 2)(x + 1)(x - 1)

Svet_ta [14]
I am better at substitution, but you want to get the equations as similar as possible, but are the opposite, so you can cancel it out.
