Answer 1

Answer:

(2x - 3)(2x - 1)(2x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by grouping the first and second terms and the 3rd and 4th terms. Be careful to not that the 3 changes from a plus to a minus. That's because the distributive property, when applied, will change it back to a minus.

(8x^3 - 12x^2) - (2x - 3)         Take out 4x^2 from the first and second terms

4x^2(2x - 3) - (2x - 3)            Now treat 2x - 3 as a single term call it y

4x^2 y - y                              Use the distributive property to get y alone.

y(4x^2 - 1)                              Factor 4x^2 - 1

y(2x - 1)(2x + 1)                       Put 2x - 3 back for y

(2x - 3)(2x - 1)(2x + 1)
