Full solution

Q. Factor completely.\newlinex5x4+3x3= x^{5}-x^{4}+3 x-3= \newline \square
  1. Identify Common Factors: Look for common factors in all terms. In the polynomial x5x4+3x3x^5 - x^4 + 3x - 3, there are no common factors in all terms.
  2. Group and Analyze Terms: Group terms to see if we can factor by grouping.\newlineWe can try to group the first two terms and the last two terms: (x5x4)+(3x3)(x^5 - x^4) + (3x - 3).
  3. Factor Out Common Factors: Factor out the common factors from each group.\newlineFrom the first group x5x4x^5 - x^4, we can factor out x4x^4, giving us x4(x1)x^4(x - 1).\newlineFrom the second group 3x33x - 3, we can factor out 33, giving us 3(x1)3(x - 1).
  4. Rewrite Factored Polynomial: Rewrite the polynomial with the factored groups.\newlineThe polynomial now looks like x4(x1)+3(x1)x^4(x - 1) + 3(x - 1).
  5. Factor Out Binomial Factor: Factor out the common binomial factor (x1)(x - 1). We can now factor (x1)(x - 1) out of both terms, giving us (x1)(x4+3)(x - 1)(x^4 + 3).
  6. Check for Further Factoring: Check if the remaining terms can be factored further. The term x4+3x^4 + 3 cannot be factored further using real numbers because it is a sum of two terms where one is a power of xx and the other is a constant.
