Correct Answer: x(x+4)
Explanation:
First portion,
$x^{3}-16x$
=$x(x^{2}-16)$
=$x(x^{2}-4^{2})$
=$x(x+4)(x-4)$
Second portion,
$2x^{3}+9x^{2} +4x$
=$x(2x^{2}+9x+4)$
=$x(2x^{2}+8x+1x+4)$
=x{2x(x+4)+1(x+4)}
=$x(x+4)(2x+1)$
Third portion
$2x^{3}+x^{2}-28x$
$= x (2x^{2} + x -28)$
$= x(2x^{2} + 8x -7x -28)$
= x{2x(x+4) – 7( x+4)}
=x(x+4)(2x-7)
Now, H.C.F = x(x+4)
