Answer:

Given Polynomial:

80b^4-32b^2c^3+48b^4c

Factors of Coefficient of terms

80 = 5 × 16

32 = 2 × 16

48 = 3 × 16

Common factor of the coefficient of all term is 16.

Each term contain variable. So the Minimum power of b is common from all terms.

Common from all variable part comes b².

So, Common factor of the polynomial = 16b²

⇒ 16b² ( 5b² ) - 16b² ( 2c³ ) + 16b² ( 3b²c )

⇒ 16b² ( 5b² - 2c³ + 3b²c )

Therefore, Statements that are true about David's word are:

The GCF of the coefficients is correct.

The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.

In step 6, David applied the distributive property

Answer:

The GCF of the coefficients is correct.

The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.

The expression in step 5 is equivalent to the given polynomial.

In step 6, David applied the distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

Only the above  four statements are true.

GFC of 80, 32, and 48: 16

We find that 16 is the highest number which divides 80, 32 and 48.  Hence 16 is GFC.

GCF of b4, b2, and b4: b2

Also we have taken the term of b in all three and found the least exponent as gCF hence correct.

Since c is not in the first term, no c term can be GCF hence iii is also true.

But the expression in step 5 is not equivalent to the given polynomial because I term in the step 5 = 80b^6c, but in the given no c term is there.

Yes. In step 6, he applied distributive property to take GCF outside the polynomial as a factor.

What is the solution to the linear equation?<br><br> –12 + 3b – 1 = –5 – b
marysya [2.9K]
-12+3b-1=-5-b
Combine like terms to get:
3b-13=-5-b
Add 13 to both sides:
3b= 8-b
Add b to both sides:
4b=8
Divide both sides by 4:
4b/4=8/4
b=2

Final answer
b=2

Kitty [74]

Answer:

6.2y - 3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

−y+5.3+7.2y−9

Subtract 9 from 5.3 to get −3.7.

−y−3.7+7.2y

Combine −y and 7.2y to get 6.2y.
