GRE Quantitative Reasoning › How to factor an equation
Solve for .
Simplify .
Factor 3_u_4 – 24_uv_3.
3_u_(u – 2_v_)(u_2 – 2_uv – 4_v_2)
3_u_\[u_3 – (2_v)3\]
3_u_(u – 2_v_)(u + 2_v_)
3_u_(u – 2_v_)(u_2 + 2_uv + 4_v_2)
3_u_(_u_3 – 8_v_3)
Solve for x: (–3x + 3) / (x – 1) = x

25_x_2 – 36_y_2 can be factored into:
(5_x_ – 6_y_)(5_x_ – 6_y_)
(5_x_ – 6_y_)(5_x_ + 6_y_)
(5_x_ + 6_y_)(5_x_ + 6_y_)
5 * 6 * (_x_2 – _y_2)
cannot be factored
x2 – 9X + 18 = 0
Find x
x = 3, 9
x = –3, 6
x = 3, 6
x = –3, –6
x = 3, –6
Factor .
