Solution - Simplification or other simple results
3*(3x^2+6x+1)
Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(32x2 + 18x) + 3
Step 2 :
Step 3 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
9x2 + 18x + 3 = 3 • (3x2 + 6x + 1)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.2 Factoring 3x2 + 6x + 1
The first term is, 3x2 its coefficient is 3 .
The middle term is, +6x its coefficient is 6 .
The last term, "the constant", is +1
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 3 • 1 = 3
Step-2 : Find two factors of 3 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 6 .
| -3 | + | -1 | = | -4 | ||
| -1 | + | -3 | = | -4 | ||
| 1 | + | 3 | = | 4 | ||
| 3 | + | 1 | = | 4 |
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
3 • (3x2 + 6x + 1)
