Exercise
$\left(3x^2\right)+\left(-x\right)+\left(5\right)$
Step-by-step Solution
Learn how to solve problems step by step online. Factor the expression 3x^2-x+5. Use the complete the square method to factor the trinomial of the form ax^2+bx+c. Take common factor a (3) to all terms. Add and subtract \displaystyle\left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2. Factor the perfect square trinomial x^2+-\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{36}. Multiply the fraction and term in - \frac{1}{6}.
Factor the expression 3x^2-x+5
Final answer to the exercise
$3\left(x-\frac{1}{6}\right)^2+\frac{59}{12}$
