Given expression: x3-6x2+3x+10
At x=1,
(1)3-6(1)2+3(1)+10=1-6+3+10=8

Thus, (x - 1) is not the factor as the value of the expression is not equal to zero at x=1.

At x=-1,
(-1)3-6(-1)2+3(-1)+10=-1-6-3+10=0

Thus, (x+1) is one factor.

At x=2,

(2)3-6(2)2+3(2)+10=8-24+6+10=0

Thus, (x-2) is one factor.

At x=5,

(5)3-6(5)2+3(5)+10=125-150+15+10=0

Thus, (x-5) is one factor.

So, the zeros are: x=-1, 2, 5

Hence, x3-6x2+3x+10=(x+1)(x-2)(x-5)
