Solution Solution
12x^3y^2 - 18x^2y^3
2x3 + 4x2 + 3x + 6
Step 1: Identify the GCMF that’s 6x2y2
Step 1: Group Terms in pairs with highest power of x and y
3 2
(2x + 4x ) + (3x + 6) that can be factored out of both terms.
Step 2: Factor using GCMF, divide by 6x2y2:
Step 2: Factor the (GCF) of Each Group
(12x3y2) / (6x2y2) - (18x2y3) / (6x2y2)
2x2(x + 2) + 3(x + 2)
Simplified: 2x(3-2)y(2-2) - 3x(2-2)y(3-2)
Step 3: Find a Common Factor Step 3: Perform arithmetic
in Both Groups = (x + 2). operations to simplify expression
Step 4: Find Common Factor : 2x1y0 - 3x0y1 or 2x - 3y
(x + 2) = (x + 2) (2x2 + 3) Step 4: Factor 12x3y2 - 18x2y3
Answer: Factored form: 6x2y2 (2x - 3y) x2 - 9.

2x + 4x + 3x + 6 Answer:
Solution x2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2) (2x2 + 3).
Step 1: Identify two perfect square terms. x2 and 9
6x2y2 (GCMF).
because x2 = (x)2 and 9 = (3)2.
Solut
Step 1: Identify the Coefficients Step 2: Recognize DOTS pattern
x2 (a): 1; x (b): 5; (c): 6
.
factor. x2 -9 = (a2 - b2) = (a + b) (a - b).
Step 2: Factor the Trinomials (x + p) (x +
q) Step 3: Use DOTS formula.
where p and q product are a * c (1 * 6 = 6) Rewrite: x2 - 9 = (x + 3) (x - 3).
and the sum is b (5). Step 4: Verify & check (x + 3)(x - 3)
Hence: x2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2) (x + 3)
.
= xx + x(-3) + 3x + 3(-3)
Step 3: Verify (multiply) = x2 - 3x + 3x - 9 = x2 - 9.
(x + 2) (x2 + 3) Answer:
= x2 + 3x +x 2x+ +6x6 + 9 x2 - 9 is (x + 3) (x - 3).
= x2 + 5x + 6
Step 1: Identify the Terms

First
(x +term
2) (x=+x3).& Last term = 9. Step 1: Identify the sum of two cubes:
Step 2: Find Square Root of terms x3 + 8 is the sum of x3 and 23.
1st term x2 = x & last term 9 = 3.
Step 2: Use Sum of Cubes Formula
Step 3: Double the product of & factor using:
Square Roots found in step 2: x^3 - 27 a3 + b3 = (a + b) (a2 - ab + b2)
= 2 * (x * 3) = 2 * (3x) = 6x Where: a is x, and b is 2.
Step 1: Identify the difference of two cubes:
Step 4: Perf. Square Trinomial where x3 – 27 Use the formula:

Solution
results from steps 2 & 3: the difference of x3 + 8 = (x + 2) (x2 - 2x + 4)
= (x + 3)2
Solution Answer;
x3 and 33 = 27.
Step 2: Use Difference of Cubes The
Answer:
factored form of x3 + 8 is:
(x + 2) (x2 - 2x + 4).
(x + 3)2 Formula & factor using
a3 - b3 = (a - b) (a2 + ab + b2),
where a = x, and b = 3.
Use the formula:
x3 - 27 = (x - 3) (x2 + 3x + 9)
Answer:
x3 - 27 is:
(x - 3) (x2 + 3x + 9).
