Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

2.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x2 as the denominator :

-5x -5x • x2

-5x = ——— = ————————

1 x2

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-5x • x2 - (5) -5x3 - 5

—————————————— = ————————

Pulling out like terms :

4.1 Pull out like factors :

-5x3 - 5 = -5 • (x3 + 1)

Trying to factor as a Sum of Cubes:

4.2 Factoring: x3 + 1

Theory : A sum of two perfect cubes, a3 + b3 can be factored into :

(a+b) • (a2-ab+b2)

Proof : (a+b) • (a2-ab+b2) =

a3-a2b+ab2+ba2-b2a+b3 =

a3+(a2b-ba2)+(ab2-b2a)+b3=

a3+0+0+b3=

a3+b3

Check : 1 is the cube of 1

Check : x3 is the cube of x1

Factorization is :

(x + 1) • (x2 - x + 1)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

4.3 Factoring x2 - x + 1

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .

The middle term is, -x its coefficient is -1 .

The last term, "the constant", is +1

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 1 = 1

Step-2 : Find two factors of 1 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -1 .

-1 + -1 = -2

1 + 1 = 2

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Trying to factor as a Difference of Cubes:

5.2 Factoring: 3x3 - 5

Theory : A difference of two perfect cubes, a3 - b3 can be factored into

(a-b) • (a2 +ab +b2)

Proof : (a-b)•(a2+ab+b2) =

a3+a2b+ab2-ba2-b2a-b3 =

a3+(a2b-ba2)+(ab2-b2a)-b3 =

a3+0+0+b3 =

a3+b3

Check : 3 is not a cube !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

5.3 Find roots (zeroes) of : F(x) = 3x3 - 5

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of x for which F(x)=0

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers x which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number P/Q then P is a factor of the Trailing Constant and Q is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is 3 and the Trailing Constant is -5.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient : 1,3

of the Trailing Constant : 1 ,5

Let us test ....
