Answer:
(3n + 4) (n-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Are you asking to factor this 3n^2 - 2n -8 ?
If so the best way to do this problem is with the X method.
top: 3*(-8)
left: factor of 3*-8 right: factor of 3*-8
bottom: -2
try the factors 4 and -6 because 4*-6 = 3 *-8 = -24
Because notice that 4 + -6 = -2
so:
3n^2 -2n - 8 can be rewritten as 3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8
We should first use Distributive property to factor: 3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8
3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8 = 3n (n - 2) + 4(n - 2)
Now we factor by grouping here : (3n + 4) (n-2)
I factored out the group (n-2)
Therefore: (3n + 4) (n-2) = 3n^2 -2n - 8

.
Then use cone surface area formula and compute the result:
.
Hope this helps.
The blank is 3.
What the question is assessing is the distributive property. The 3 term gets distributed to the 6 and the -2, which means it the 6 and the -2 are multiplied by 3.
