(i) Let’s find out the HCF of 9x3 , 6x2 , 12x
3x is the highest common factor which divides 9x3, 6x2 and 12x.
So,
9x3 – 6x2 + 12x = 3x(3x2 - 2x + 4)
(ii) Let’s find out the HCF of 8x3, 72xy and 12x
4x is the highest common factor which divides 8x3, 72xy and 12x.

(i) x(x + 3) + 5(x + 3)
Taking x + 3 as common from the whole, we get,
(x + 3)(x + 5).
Hence, x(x + 3) + 5(x + 3) = (x + 3)(x + 5)(ii) 5x(x – 4) -7(x – 4)
Taking x – 4 as common from the whole, we get,
5x(x – 4) -7(x – 4) = (x – 4)(5x – 7).

= (a – 2b){(3a – 6b) – 5}
= (a – 2b)(3a – 6b – 5)
So,
We get,

= (2x – 3y)(24x – 36y + 16)
= 4(2x - 3y)(6x – 9y + 4)
So,
We get,
12(2x – 3y)2 – 16(3y – 2x) = 4(2x - 3y)(6x – 9y + 4)
Factories:
(x + y)(2x + 5) – (x + y)(x + 3)

= (x + y)(2x + 5 – x – 3)
= (x + y)(2x – x + 5 – 3)

So,
We get,
(x + y)(2x + 5) – (x + y)(x + 3) = (x + y)(x + 2)

= (ab2 – ab) – (bc2 - c2)
= ab(b – 1) – c2(b - 1)
= (b – 1)(ab – c2)
So we get,

= (a2x2 + b2y2 + 2axby) + (b2x2 + a2y2 – 2bxay)
= a2x2 + a2y2 + b2y2 + b2x2 + 2axby – 2bxay
= a2(x2 + y2) + b2x2 + b2y2 + 2axby – 2axby
= a2(x2 + y2) + b2(x2 + y2)
= (x2 + y2)(a2 + b2)
So we get,
