Factor 3c^3 + 375. @igreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

You can first factor a 3 out

OpenStudy (igreen):

Can you do that?

OpenStudy (18jonea):

C^3 +125

OpenStudy (18jonea):

@iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, \(\sf 3(c^3 + 125)\)

OpenStudy (18jonea):

but that is not one of my options

OpenStudy (igreen):

I know, we have to factor the inside of the parenthesis.

OpenStudy (18jonea):

o ok

OpenStudy (18jonea):

(c+25)(c^2+5)

OpenStudy (18jonea):

is that right

OpenStudy (18jonea):

@iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

You got it mixed up, it's c^2 + 5c + 25

OpenStudy (igreen):

Don't forget to add the c + 5 at the beginning though.

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(\sf (c + 5)(c^2 - 5c + 25)\)

OpenStudy (18jonea):

ok and then would there be a 3 outside the parenthesies? @iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(\sf 3((c + 5)(c^2 - 5c + 25))\)
