the tale-tell fellow is the number inside the parentheses.
if that number, the so-called "growth or decay factor", is less than 1, then is Decay, if it's more than 1, is Growth.

Answer:
2x³+3x²-8x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know x=½,x=1 and x=-3
Then (2x-1)(x-1)(x+3) are the factors
(2x-1)[(x²+3x-x-3)]
(2x-1)[(x²+2x-3)]
2x³+4x²-6x-x²-2x+3
2x³+3x²-8x+3
