Answer:
3x(x - 4)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x³ - 6x² - 24x ← factor out common factor of 3x from each term
= 3x(x² - 2x - 8) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
The factors are - 4 and + 2, since
- 4 × 2 = - 8 and - 4 + 2 = - 2, thus
x² - 2x - 8 = (x - 4)(x + 2) and
3x³ - 6x² - 24x = 3x(x - 4)(x + 2)

Answer: -2w^2 + 25w = 25 or -2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0</h3>
================================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below. The width is w. We have two opposite and parallel sides equal to this. The other two parallel congruent sides are L = 25-2w meters long. We start with the total amount of fencing, and then subtract off the two width values, so 25-w-w = 25-2w.
The area of the rectangle is
Area = length*width
Area = L*W
Area = (25-2w)*w
Area = 25w - 2w^2
Area = -2w^2 + 25w
Set this equal to the desired area (25 square meters) to get
-2w^2 + 25w = 25
and we can subtract 25 from both sides to get everything on one side
-2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0
side note: The two approximate solutions of this equation are w = 1.0961 and w = 11.4039 (use the quadratic formula or a graphing calculator to find this)
