Question

What is a factorable polynomial with a god of 6

Answer 1

The GCF is the greatest common factor of 2 or more numbers or polynomials.

Start with the factors: x, x + 1, x - 2

Now multiply them together.

x(x+1)(x−2) =(x2+x)(x−2)

=x3−2x2+x2−2x

=x3−x2−2x

Our polynomial is: x3−x2−2x

Since we created our own polynomial from factors, now we know that this polynomial factors as

x3−x2−2x=x(x+1)(x−2)

You can combine x with x + 1, and later x with x - 2, and have two other forms of the polynomial: x3−x2−2x=(x2+x)(x−2)

x3−x2−2x=(x2−2x)(x+1)
