Factor LaTeX:  \displaystyle - 40 x^{3} + 12 x^{2} + 50 x - 15 .

Factoring out the GCF LaTeX:  \displaystyle -1 from each term gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle -(40 x^{3} - 12 x^{2} - 50 x + 15) . Grouping the first two terms and factoring out their GCF, LaTeX:  \displaystyle 4 x^{2} , gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle 4 x^{2}(10 x - 3) . Grouping the last two terms and factoring out their GCF, LaTeX:  \displaystyle -5 , gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle -5(10 x - 3) . The polynomial now has a common binomial factor of LaTeX:  \displaystyle 10 x - 3 . This gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle -1[4 x^{2} \left(10 x - 3\right) -5 \cdot \left(10 x - 3\right)] = -\left(10 x - 3\right) \left(4 x^{2} - 5\right) .
