factor out completely: please explain: 66x^15-22x^21+33x^14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first derivatives, then factoring? what kind of bizarre class is this?

OpenStudy (uri):

@satellite73 She asked factorizing questions before too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[66x^{15}-22x^{21}+33x^{14}\] each term has a common factor of \(11\) and also a common factor of \(x^{14}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

start with \[11x^{14}(something)\] and then figure out what the "something" has to be

OpenStudy (uri):

I showed her how to do it,I guess she knows @Algebra2013 Do you know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first term of the "something" must be \(6x\) because \(11x^{14}\times 6x=66x^{15}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I came up with: 11x^14(6x-2^7+3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

On the right track?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah , assumming you meant \[11x^{14}(6x-2x^7+3)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, thank you very much
