how to factor x^3-3x+2
im trying to get something like that ( ) ( ) so when we
multiply them, it will give us the original equation
not the soulotion for x
Solution
f(x) = x^3 - 3x - 2 f(-1) = (-1)^3 -3(-1) - 2 = -
1 + 3 - 2 = 0 x+1 is a factor By division: x^3 - 3x - 2 =
(x+1)(x^2 - x - 2) = (x+1)(x^2 - 2x + x - 2) = (x+1)(x(x-
2)+1(x-2)) = (x+1)(x+1)(x-2) = (x-2)(x+1)^2
