Factorize the following expression : 21x^2 – 2x + 1/21

Factorize 21x² – 2x + 1/21 Question: Factorize: \[ 21x^2-2x+\frac{1}{21} \] Solution: \[ 21x^2-2x+\frac{1}{21} \] \[ =21x^2-2\left(x\cdot\frac{1}{21}\right)+\frac{1}{21^2}\cdot21 \] \[ =21\left(x^2-\frac{2x}{21}+\frac{1}{441}\right) \] \[ =21\left(x-\frac{1}{21}\right)^2 \] \[ =\left(\sqrt{21}x-\frac{1}{\sqrt{21}}\right)^2 \] \[ \boxed{21\left(x-\frac{1}{21}\right)^2} \] Next Question / Full Exercise

Factorize the following expression : x(x^3 – y^3) + 3xy(x – y)

Factorize x(x³ – y³) + 3xy(x – y) Question: Factorize: \[ x(x^3-y^3)+3xy(x-y) \] Solution: \[ x(x^3-y^3)+3xy(x-y) \] \[ =x(x-y)(x^2+xy+y^2)+3xy(x-y) \] \[ =(x-y)\left[x(x^2+xy+y^2)+3xy\right] \] \[ =(x-y)(x^3+x^2y+xy^2+3xy) \] \[ =(x-y)\left(x^3+x^2y+xy^2+y^3-y^3+3xy\right) \] \[ =(x-y)\left[(x+y)(x^2+y^2)+xy(x+y)-y^3+3xy\right] \] \[ =(x-y)(x+y)(x^2+y^2+xy) \] \[ \boxed{(x-y)(x+y)(x^2+xy+y^2)} \] Next Question / Full Exercise
