Greenhouse Operational Modeling and Formula Simplification

Based on the scenario, recall and describe the standard step-by-step mathematical procedure to factor the volume expression 5y3−15y2−270y{}5y^3 - 15y^2 - 270y completely. In your written response, make sure to explicitly state:

  1. The greatest common factor (GCF) that you must extract first.
  2. The remaining trinomial expression left inside the parentheses after extracting the GCF.
  3. The two integers that multiply to -54 and add to -3.
  4. The final completely factored form of the expression.
