Factorise the expression 3a2-4ab as far as possible

Mathematics

In this case, you have to find a common multiple of 3a^2 and 4ab. As only one of the numbers is divisible by two, this means that two cannot go outside of the bracket. The only other aspect that is in both sides of the equation is a, therefore, this goes outside the bracket. The best way to approach this is to divide both sides by a, and this will give you what is inside the bracket. 3a^2 divided by a is 3a, therefore, this is the first aspect in the bracket. -4ab divided by a, leaves -4b. Therefore, these go in the bracket.
3a^2- 4ab simplified is a(3a-4b)
Hope this helps

Flauer [41]
Bea has $550 more money than Alessandro after 12 months.
Explanation:
So let start with writing the equation for Alessandro money. So we know that the current amount in his/her bank account has $2,400 and she saves $250 per month. So the equation that best fit these terms is:
y
=
250
x
+
2
,
400
Bea has $1,750 in his/her bank account and saves $350 per month. So the equation that best fit these terms is:
y
=
350
x
+
1
,
750
So for x for both of these equations is 12. So let plug the number in
Alessandro:
y
=

400

y

y

5400
after 12 months
Bea:
y
=
350
(
12
)
+
1750

y
=
4200
+
1750

y
=

5950
after 12 months
So subtracting $5950 and 5400 gives us a $550

hope this helps :p

The -3 at the end of the equation would be the location of the lower point on the Y axis
 and since the x-4 part is in between the vertical lines, that means the absolute value, which is always positive so the graph would make a V shape

so the correct graph would be  D
