Q15 of 274 Page 62

Factorize:
px – 5q + pq – 5x

We have,

At first we’ll take common from the expression

= p (x + q) – 5 (q + x)

= (x + q) (p – 5)

Hence,

The given expression can be factorized as:

Factorize:

8 – 4a – 2a³ + a⁴

Factorize:

x³ – 2x²y + 3xy² – 6y³

Factorize:

x² + y – xy - x

Factorize:

(3a - 1)² – 6a + 2

Factorize:px – 5q + pq – 5x
