Question

Ugh this should be my last question pls explain so i wont have to ask again

Factor this polynomial: xyz + 2xz – 3xy

Answer 1

You can factor ou x, you get
x(yz+2z-3y), then factor out z from yz+2z
x(z(y+2)-3y)

Answer 2

The only gcf I see is x,

You're undoing the distributive property, so...

\[\frac{ xyz + 2xz - 3xy }{ x } =yz + 2z - 3y\]

x(yz -3y + 2z)
