Factor by grouping: x^3 + 3x^2 - 25x -75 Which of the following is one of the factors?




Respuesta :

Answer:

Final factor is [tex](x + 3)(x+5)(x-5)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is [tex]x^3 + 3x^2 - 25x -75[/tex]

Now we need to factor that expression [tex]x^3 + 3x^2 - 25x -75[/tex] by grouping. So let's make group of first two terms and group of last two terms.

[tex]x^3 + 3x^2 - 25x -75[/tex]

[tex]=(x^3 + 3x^2)+( - 25x -75)[/tex]

factor each group

[tex]=x^2(x + 3)-25(x +3)[/tex]

[tex]=(x + 3)(x^2-25)[/tex]

[tex]=(x + 3)(x+5)(x-5)[/tex]

Hence final factor is [tex](x + 3)(x+5)(x-5)[/tex].
