Simplify the following:

12 Ix2 - 6 x + 5M - 6 Hx - 5L Hx - 3L

The factors of 5 that sum to -6 are -1 and -5. So, x2 - 6 x + 5 Hx - 1L Hx - 5L:

12 Hx - 1L Hx - 5L - 6 Hx - 5L Hx - 3L

Factor 6 out of 12 Hx - 5L Hx - 1L - 6 Hx - 5L Hx - 3L giving 6 H2 Hx - 5L Hx - 1L - Hx 5L Hx - 3LL:

6 H2 Hx - 5L Hx - 1L - Hx - 5L Hx - 3LL

Hx - 5L Hx - 1L HxL HxL + HxL H-1L + H-5L HxL + H-5L H-1L x2 - x - 5 x + 5 x2 - 6

x + 5:
6 J2 x2 - 6 x + 5 - Hx - 5L Hx - 3LN
2 Ix2 - 6 x + 5M 2 x2 - 12 x + 10:

6 J 2 x2 - 12 x + 10 - Hx - 5L Hx - 3LN
Hx - 5L Hx - 3L HxL HxL + HxL H-3L + H-5L HxL + H-5L H-3L x2 - 3 x - 5 x + 15 x2 8 x + 15:
6 J- x2 - 8 x + 15 + 2 x2 - 12 x + 10N
-Ix2 - 8 x + 15M -x2 + 8 x - 15:

6 J -x2 + 8 x - 15 + 2 x2 - 12 x + 10N
Grouping like terms, 2 x2 - x2 + 8 x - 12 x - 15 + 10 I2 x2 - x2 M + H-12 x + 8 xL +
H10 - 15L:

6 II2 x2 - x2 M + H-12 x + 8 xL + H10 - 15LM

2 x2 - x2 x2 :

6 J x2 + H-12 x + 8 xL + H10 - 15LN

8 x - 12 x -4 x:

6 Ix2 + -4 x + H10 - 15LM

10 - 15 -5:

6 Ix2 - 4 x + -5 M

The factors of -5 that sum to -4 are 1 and -5. So, x2 - 4 x - 5 Hx + 1L Hx - 5L:

Answer:

6 Hx + 1L Hx - 5L
