$-\left(x^2+\frac{1}{2}x-3\right)$
Learn how to solve polynomial factorization problems step by step online. Factor the expression -x^2-1/2x+3. Use the complete the square method to factor the trinomial of the form ax^2+bx+c. Take common factor a (-1) to all terms. Add and subtract \displaystyle\left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2. Factor the perfect square trinomial x^2+\frac{1}{2}xx+\frac{1}{16}. Subtract the values -3 and -\frac{1}{16}.
