Me i don't know how to factor polynomials

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

(3 x - 1) (2 x - 1)

Discussion:

Polynomial = 6x^2 -5x + 1.

Look at the factors of the leading (x^2) term: 6.  Factors of 6 are  2 and 3 and 3-2 equals 1 which is the constant term. So the numbers 2 and 3 are key to the factorization.A little fiddling around (how's that for a math concept!) shows the factorization is

(3 x - 1) (2 x - 1)

Note that 3 and 2 appear in the factorization.

Thank you,

MrB

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632

0.02

step-by-step explanation:

time of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the 2 hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom at 0 k (but other seconds are sometimes used in astronomy)
