You would first factor out anything that is common between the 3 parts. 2x2 is the greatest common factor. To pull out the 2x2, you divide each term by 2x2 like so:
12x4/2x2=6x2
10x3/2x2=5x
-12x2/2x2=-6
We now know that 12x4+10x3-12x2= 2x2(6x2+5x-6)
The next step involves using the "slip and slide" method for the trinomial inside the parentheses:
6x2+5x-6
x2+5x-36
(x+9)(x-4)
(x+9/6)(x-4/6)
(x+3/2)(x-2/3)
(2x+3)(3x-2)
Remembering that the result for the slip and slide method only accounts for 6x2+5x-6 we must multiply (2x+3)(3x-2) by 2x2.
Your final answer is 2x2(2x+3)(3x-2).
The GCF is 6x3.
No
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 4.
The GCF is 8. 8(m + n)
(2a + b)(2c + d)
2x^2(3x - 2)(2x + 3)
24x6 + 12x4 + 15x2 factor the greatest common factor, 3x2 = 3x2(8x4 + 4x2 + 5)
The GCF is 4x4
The GCF is 4x4
The GCF is 6x3.
use the difference of two squares yule.
Your answer is 4!
It is probably 2.
12x4 - 42x6 = 6x4 (2 - 7x2)
(20x8 + 12x4) over 4x2 = 160 + 48 over 8 = 208 over 8 = [26] OR 20x8 + (12x4 over 4x2) = 160 + (48 over 8) = 160 + 6 = 166
48
12x3=36 12x4=48 12x5=60 The greatest common factor (GCF) of 36, 48, and 60 is 12.
