Factor a negative number or a GCF with a negative coefficient from the polynomial.
-$- 18 y ^ { 3 } + 10 y$
A) $- 2 y \left( 9 y ^ { 2 } + 5 \right)$
B) $- 2 y ^ { 2 } ( 9 y - 5 )$
C) $- 2 y \left( 9 y ^ { 2 } - 5 \right)$
D) $- 2 \left( 9 y ^ { 3 } + 5 y \right)$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms $-18y^3$ and $+10y$ is $-2y$, because both terms are divisible by $-2y$, and factoring it out gives $-2y(9y^2 - 5)$.

Factor a Negative Number or a GCF with a Negative −18y3+10y- 18 y ^ { 3 } + 10 y−18y3+10y

Factor a Negative Number or a GCF with a Negative $- 18 y ^ { 3 } + 10 y$
