\(x^3+x^2+4\)
\(=x^3+2x^2-x^2+4\)
\(=x^2\left(x+2\right)-\left(x^2-4\right)\)
\(=x^2\left(x+2\right)-\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)\)
\(=\left(x+2\right)\left(x^2-x+2\right)\)
x3-2x-4
=x3-4x+2x-4
=x(x2-4)+2(x-2)
=x(x-2)(x+2)+2(x-2)
=(x^2+2x+2)(x-2)
\(=x^3+x^2+2^2\)
\(=x^3+\left[\left(x^2+2.2x+2^2\right)-4x\right]\)
\(=x^3+\left(x+2\right)^2-4x\)
\(=x\left(x^2-4\right)+\left(x+2\right)^2\)
\(=x\left(x^2-2^2\right)+\left(x+2\right)^2\)
\(=x\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)+\left(x+2\right)^2\)
\(=x\left(x+2\right)\left[\left(x-2\right)+\left(x+2\right)\right]\)
\(=x\left(x+2\right)\left(x^2+2x-2x-4\right)\)
\(=x\left(x+2\right)\left(x^2-4\right)\)
