Answer: (3a + 1) (a + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Concept:</u>
Here, we need to know the idea of factorization.
It is like "splitting" an expression into a multiplication of simpler expressions. Factoring is also the opposite of Expanding.
<u>Solve:</u>
Given = 3a² + 10a + 3
<em>STEP ONE: separate 3a² into two terms</em>
3a
a
<em>STEP TWO: separate 3 into two terms</em>
3
1
<em>STEP THREE: match the four terms in ways that when doing cross-multiplication, the result will give us 10a.</em>
3a 1
a 3
When cross multiply, 3a × 3 + 1 × a = 10a
<em>STEP FOUR: combine the expression horizontally to get the final factorized expression.</em>
3a ⇒ 1
a ⇒ 3
(3a + 1) (a + 3)
Hope this helps!! :)

Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
- multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
- multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48
At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
I'm assuming it's 57. Because 1/2 can equal .5 and 56.5+.5=57
lim x → ∞ x^4 x^8 + 2
Combine exponents:
lim x → ∞ x^(4 +8) + 2
lim x → ∞ x^12 + 2
The limit at infinity of a polynomial, when the leading coefficient is positive is infinity.
