Factor completely:

3x³ - 3x - 36

The answer to your question is 3 (x³ - x - 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial 3x³ - 3x - 36

Step 1. Look for like terms to factor

3 - 3 36 2

3 - 3 18 2

3 - 3 9 3

1 - 1 3 3

1

Like term = 3

Step 2. factor 3

3 (x³ - x - 12) This is the result, it can not factor more

because the first term has a power of 3,

if it were 2, the polynomial could factor

more.
