This polynomial doesn't factor. The only thing you can do is take out parts of some terms, e.g. 2(2x3 + 10x2 + x) - 3.

10x2-36x+18 Divide all terms by 2: 5x2-18x+9 = (5x-3)(x-3) when factored
Take out the common factor, 3: 3x + 6 = 3(x + 2).
That doesn't factor neatly. Applying the quadratic formula, we find two real solutions: (-1 plus or minus the square root of 265) divided by 12 x = 1.2732350496749756 x = -1.439901716341642
