factor 3x^4-6x^3y

Solution

factor

3 x^{4} - 6 x^{3} y

Solution

3 x^{3} (x - 2 y)

Solution steps

3 x^{4} - 6 x^{3} y

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

x^{4} = x^{3} x

= 3 x^{3} x - 6 x^{3} y

Rewrite

- 6

as

2 \cdot 3

= 3 x^{3} x + 2 \cdot 3 x^{3} y

Factor out common term

3 x^{3}

= 3 x^{3} (x - 2 y)
