Solution

Para encontrar el máximo común divisor (MCD) de los términos del polinomio 15x418x3+12x215x^4 - 18x^3 + 12x^2, sigamos estos pasos:

  1. Descomponer los coeficientes en factores primos:

    • 15=3×515 = 3 \times 5
    • 18=2×3218 = 2 \times 3^2
    • 12=22×312 = 2^2 \times 3
  2. Identificar los factores comunes:

    • Los factores comunes de los coeficientes 1515, 1818 y 1212 son 33.
  3. Determinar el menor exponente de xx en cada término:

    • 15x415x^4 tiene x4x^4
    • 18x318x^3 tiene x3x^3
    • 12x212x^2 tiene x2x^2
    • El menor exponente de xx es x2x^2.
  4. Combinar los factores comunes:

    • El MCD de los coeficientes es 33.
    • El menor exponente de xx es x2x^2.

Por lo tanto, el MCD de los términos del polinomio es 3x23x^2.

La respuesta correcta es: B. 3x23x^2
