Chapter 5.5, Problem 14E
Solution

To calculate: The least common factor of 9x2−16 and 3x2−2x−8.

The least common factor is 3x+43x−4x−2.

Given information:

The expressions are: 9x2−16 and 3x2−2x−8

Calculation:

Given expressions are 9x2−16 and 3x2−2x−8.

Factor each polynomial. Write numerical factors as products of primes.

  9x2−16 =3x2−42=3x+43x−43x2−2x−8=3x2−6x+4x−8=3xx−2+4x−2=3x+4x−2

Form the LCM by writing each factor to the highest power it occurs in either polynomial.

LCM =3x+43x−4x−2

Therefore, the least common factor is 3x+43x−4x−2.
