Question

the coat of a customers smartphone bill can be modeled by the equation C=10g+50 where g is the number of gigabits of data the customer per month.Factor this cost polynomial

Answer 1

Answer:

$C=10(g+5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cost of a customers smartphone bill,

C=10g+50

We are required to factor the polynomial.

First, determine the G.C.D of both terms

• The GCD of 10g and 50 is 10

Next, we divide each of the term by 10 and balance it by multiplying the expression by 10.

$C=10g+50\\=10(\frac{10g}{10}+\frac{50}{10})\\C=10(g+5)$

The cost polynomial factored is C=10(g+5).
