Solve: x33x29x5

Open in App
Solution

Let f(x)=x33x29x5 be the given polynomial.

Now, putting x=1, we get

f(1)=(1)33(1)29(1)5

=13+95=9+9=0

Therefore, (x+1) is a factor of polynomial f(x).

Now,

f(x)=x33x29x5

=x3+x24x24x5x5

=x2(x+1)4x(x+1)5(x+1)

=(x+1)(x24x5)

=(x+1)(x25x+x5)

=(x+1){x(x5)+1(x5)}

=(x+1)(x5)(x+1)

Hence (x+1),(x+1),(x5) are the factors of polynomial f(x).
