Question

How to factor 18a2+6a5-8a3

Answer 1

`2a^2(3a^3-4a+9)`

Explanation:

You could change the equation to this:
`6a^3a^2-8a^1a^2+18a^2`

*This is the exact same as
`18a^2+6a^5-8a^3`

You can continue to break this down until you get:

`2*3a^3a^2-2*4a^1a^2+2*9a^2`

*This too =
`18a^2+6a^5-8a^3`

With this new equation, you can cancel out the common term:
`2a^2`

You come up with my answer.

Hope this helps!!
