Using algebraic identities find the coefficients of x2 term, x term and constant term.
(5x + 2)(1 – 5x)(5x + 3)
(5x + 2)(1 – 5x)(5x + 3)
Here we have to use the identity
(x + a)(x + b)(x + c) = x3 + (a + b + c)x2 + (ab + bc + ca)x + abc
∴ – (5x + 2)(5x – 1)(5x + 3)
here x = 5x, a = 2, b = – 1 and c = 3
= – (5x)3 – (2 – 1 + 3)(5x)2 – (– 2 – 3 + 6)5x + 6
= – 125x3 – 100x2 – 5x + 6
Here coefficient of
x2 = – 100
x = – 5 and
constant term = 6
