Given:
3x^2 - 9x
3x is one factor.
Determine the other factor.
Solution:
In order to determine the other factor of the given quadratic equation, we will factor the given 3x out of the equation.
=3x^2 - 9x
= 3x ( x - 3)
Equate x-3 to 0
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
Final answer: The other factor of the equation is x = 3
