Factor polynomial $$ x^{3}-x^{2}-29x+29 $$
Answer
$$ x^{3}-x^{2}-29x+29 = ( x^{2}-29 )( x-1 ) $$
Explanation
To factor $ x^{3}-x^{2}-29x+29 $ we can use factoring by grouping:
Group $ \color{blue}{ x^{3} }$ with $ \color{blue}{ -x^{2} }$ and $ \color{red}{ -29x }$ with $ \color{red}{ 29 }$ then factor each group.
$$ \begin{aligned} x^{3}-x^{2}-29x+29 = ( \color{blue}{ x^{3}-x^{2} } ) + ( \color{red}{ -29x+29 }) &= \\ &= \color{blue}{ x^{2}( x-1 )} + \color{red}{ -29( x-1 ) } = \\ &= (x^{2}-29)(x-1) \end{aligned} $$This page was created using
