Factor this expression completely: 2x^3+4x^2-6x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplifying 2x3 + 4x2 + -6x Reorder the terms: -6x + 4x2 + 2x3 Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2x'. 2x(-3 + 2x + x2) Factor a trinomial. 2x((-3 + -1x)(1 + -1x)) Final result: 2x(-3 + -1x)(1 + -1x)

Take out the GCF 2x(x^2 + 2x -3) Now use the diamond method to figure out the factors: (x^2+2x - 3) (x^2 + 3x)(-1x - 3) Take out GCF from each of the factor: x(x+3) -1(x+3) (x-1)(x+3) would be your final answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what? what is the final answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

HERE: Final result: 2x(-3 + -1x)(1 + -1x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x(x-1)(x+3) is the final answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? you guys have two different answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they are the same, take a look at it
