Please factor this trinomial. Thanks
![The expression displayed in the image is:
\[ 3a^2b - 51ab^2 + 21b^3 \]
This algebraic expression involves multiple terms consisting of variables \( a \) and \( b \), raised to different powers and multiplied by coefficients. The terms are:
1. \( 3a^2b \) - The first term where \( a \) is squared and multiplied by \( b \) and the coefficient 3.
2. \( -51ab^2 \) - The second term where \( a \) is multiplied by \( b \) squared and the coefficient -51.
3. \( 21b^3 \) - The third term where \( b \) is cubed and the coefficient is 21.
This expression can be used in various algebraic calculations, such as factoring, simplifying, or solving equations.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7ccca6fb-61c6-4368-b7fc-70ec63e6ad1a%2Fec907d24-7665-4bd2-a059-796641d306d9%2Fqi1w9j_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
