Factoring the Polynomial

Medium Algebra Polynomials

Let the polynomial be defined as:

$$P(x) = 4x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x - 5$$

Which of the following polynomials is equivalent to $$P(x)$$ when factoring out the common factor, if any?

$$4(x^3 - \frac{3}{4}x^2 + \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{5}{4})$$

$$x(4x^2 - 3x + 2) - 5$$

$$P(x) = (4x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x) - 5$$

$$4(x^3 - \frac{3}{4}x^2 + \frac{1}{2}x) - 5$$
