Solution - Simplification or other simple results

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (2x2 • x) -  15
 Step  2  :

Trying to factor as a Difference of Cubes:

 2.1      Factoring:  2x³-15 

Theory : A difference of two perfect cubes,  a³ - b³ can be factored into
              (a-b) • (a² +ab +b²)

Proof :  (a-b)•(a²+ab+b²) =
            a³+a²b+ab²-ba²-b²a-b³ =
            a³+(a²b-ba²)+(ab²-b²a)-b³ =
            a³+0+0-b³ =
            a³-b³

Check :  2  is not a cube !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

 2.2    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = 2x³-15
Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  2  and the Trailing Constant is  -15.

 The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1,2
 of the Trailing Constant :  1 ,3 ,5 ,15

 Let us test ....

Polynomial Roots Calculator found no rational roots

Final result :

  2x3 - 15
