Question Factor the expression: $6x^2 + x$

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The given expression is $6x^{} + x$ . We need to factor this expression completely

STEP 2

The first step in factoring an expression is to look for a common factor in all terms. In this case, the common factor is $x$ .
$6x^{2} + x = x(6x +1)$

STEP 3

Now, we check if the expression inside the parentheses can be factored further. In this case, $6x +1$ cannot be factored further because it is a prime polynomial.
So, the completely factored form of the expression $6x^{2} + x$ is $x(6x +1)$ .
