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

Question

anonymous · Answer

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)

katrinakaif · Answer

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
