Step 1
We have to factorize the polynomial:
18x212x+2
Factorizing the polynomial by middle term splitting method.
Here,
18×2=36
=6×6
for middle term,
-12=-6-6
Step 2
Applying above method for the given polynomial, we get
18x212x+2=18x26x6x+2
=6x(3x-1)-2(3x-1)
=(3x-1)(6x-2)
=(3x1)×2(3x1)
=2(3x-1)(3x-1)
Hence, factorized form of the expression is 2(3x-1)(3x-1).
