a) x3 -2x2 +5x-4
=x3-x2-x2+x+4x-4
=x2(x-1)-x(x-1)+4(x-1)
=(x2-x+4)(x-1)
b) x3-x2+x+3
=x3+x2-2x2-2x+3x+3
=x2(x+1) -2x(x+1)+3(x+1)
=(x2-2x+3)(x+1)
c) 6x3+x2+x+1
=6x3+ 3x2-2x2-x+2x+1
=6x2(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\)) - 2x(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\)) +2(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))
=(6x2-2x+2) (x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))
=2( 3x2-x+1) (x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))
d) 4x3 + 6x2+4x+1
= 4x3+2x2+4x2+2x+2x+1
= 4x2(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))+ 4x(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))+2(x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))
= 2(2x2 +2x+1)( x+\(\frac{1}{2}\))
