2x+5x-24 7x2-24
Factor the polynomial x2 - 10x + 25. Enter each factor as a polynomial in descending order.
x(x + 2)(x - 5)
Type your answer here... (2x + 5)(4x - 7)
To write each factor as a polynomial in descending order, first identify the terms of the polynomial and arrange them based on the degree of each term, starting with the highest degree. For example, if you have factors like (x^2 + 3x - 5) and (2x - 1), you would express each factor individually, ensuring that the term with the highest exponent comes first. Finally, combine all terms, maintaining the descending order for clarity and consistency.
To factor a polynomial expression, you identify common factors among the terms and express the polynomial as a product of simpler polynomials. For example, consider the polynomial ( x^2 - 5x + 6 ); it factors into ( (x - 2)(x - 3) ). Each factor is written in descending order, starting with the highest degree term. The specific steps to factor will depend on the polynomial you are working with.
