factor completely 6x^4-12x^3+24x^2

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

6x2(x2-2x+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[6x^4-12x^3+24x^2=6x^2(x^2-2x+4)\] and since \[D=(-2)^2-4\cdot4=-12\] you can't factor out quadratic polynomial

so then it would -12 am i right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, answer is in my first line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just explain why you can't factor it more, but it seems don't have clue about it at all
