Answer:
3x^2 (5x^3 + 4x^2 - 8x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is 15x^5 + 12x^4-24x^3-3x^2
Here we have to find the GCF of all the above terms.
The GCF is 3x^2, let's take out 3x^2 and write the remaining terms in the parenthesis.
15x^5 + 12x^4-24x^3-3x^2
=3x^2 (5x^3 + 4x^2 - 8x - 1)
Therefore, the factors are 3x^2 and (5x^3 + 4x^2 -8x -1).
15x^5 + 12x^4-24x^3-3x^2 = 3x^2 (5x^3 + 4x^2 -8x -1)
Thank you.
