Question

a^4b + a^2b^3 Please help me with the steps. I need to Factor each polynomial completely.

Answer 1

a^4b + a^2b^3
factor out a^2b
a^2b(a^2 + b^2)

Answer 2

Are you factoring out the A^2 because of the A^4 being the same variables?

Answer 3

Thank you for your help in the showing me the steps.

Answer 4

look at your a terms....a^4 and a^2---factor out the smallest..a^2
look at your b terms ...b and b^3---factor out the smallest..b

leaving you with : a^2b(a^2 + b^2)

Answer 5

Okay thank you
