To factor the polynomial 8x³ + 40x² - 24x - 120, we can use the grouping method:

Step 1: Group the terms: (8x³ + 40x²) - (24x + 120)

Step 2: Factor out the common factor from each group:
In the first group, we can factor out 8x²: 8x²(x + 5).
In the second group, we can factor out 24: 24(x + 5).<...
