Question

factor 8x^3-36x^2+16x

Answer 1

start by taking 4x out as a common factor

4x(2x^2 -9x + 4)

now just factor the quadratic

hope this helps

Answer 2

could you factor it for me too i need a good example please

Answer 3

well here is a method that works


for a quadratic

\[ax^2 + bx + c\]

multiply a and c in your question 2 and 4 = 8

find the factors of 8 that add to -9... there are both negative

then complete the binomials

(2x + factor1)(2x + fractor2)
--------------------------
2

one of the binomials will have a common factor that cancels with the denominator..

whats left is the factored quadratic..

hope that helps
