factorise y^3-10y+3

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

\[y ^{3}-10y+3=0\] \[y ^{3}-10y=-3\] \[-9y ^{3}=-3\] \[y ^{3}=\frac{ -3 }{ -9 }\] \[y ^{3}=\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (klimenkov):

@Yacoub1993 Check the third step.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y^3 and 10y not like terms???

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

ohh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x-3 is a factor

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

mistaken didnt focus sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(x-3)(x^2+3x-1)\]

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

go ahead next

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y you are putting it equal to zero??? @Yacoub1993

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its finished like that

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

so that i factorize it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no no basically what you are trying to find a value of y such that if you put it in this equation will result in zero not to factorize it

OpenStudy (yacoub1993):

ahha understood @rizwan_uet u should be my tutor for real :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks Yacoub i will help you if you need

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have this y^3-10y+3 now we can write y^3+3y^2-3y^2-y-9y+3 y^3-3y^2+3y^2-9y-y+3 y^2(y-3)+3y(y-3)-1(y-3) can you do the last step??
