Answer:


=(4x+1)(x^2+6)

Explanation:

Given the expression:


4x^3+24x+x^2+6

First, group the expression into two as follows:


=(4x^3+24x)+(x^2+6)

In the first two terms, factor out 4x.

In the last two terms, factor out 1.


=4x(x^2+6)+1(x^2+6)

Thus, the factored form of the expression is:


=(4x+1)(x^2+6)
