Factorise 9x^2y-24xy^2+16y^3

Open in App
Solution

9x2y-24xy2+16y3 Final result : y • (3x - 4y)2 Step by step solution : Step1: Equation at the end of step1: (((9•(x2))•y)-(24x•(y2)))+24y3 Step 2 : Equation at the end of step2: (((9 • (x2)) • y) - (23•3xy2)) + 24y3 Step 3 : Equation at the end of step3: ((32x2 • y) - (23•3xy2)) + 24y3 Step4: Step5: Pulling out like terms :

5.1 Pull out like factors: 9x2y - 24xy2+ 16y3=y•(9x2- 24xy + 16y2)

Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :

5.2 Factoring9x2- 24xy + 16y2 Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error Found a factorization:(3x - 4y)•(3x - 4y)

Detecting a perfect square :

5.39x2-24xy+16y2 is a perfect square It factors into(3x-4y)•(3x-4y) which is another way of writing(3x-4y)2 How to recognize a perfect square trinomial: • It has three terms • Two of its terms are perfect squares themselves • The remaining term is twice the product of the square roots of the other two terms

Final result : y • (3x - 4y)2
