Answer:
4(a + 6)
3(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring is just rewriting an expression into the parts that multiply together to make the original...like if I had a 100 but decided instead to write 4×25 or if I had 25x I wrote 5(5x) .
If you look at your
4a + 24
You're looking for whatever is the same in both pieces (the 4a and also the 24) So there is a 4 in 4a and there is also a 4 "in" 24 (as in 4×6 is 24)
So if you pull out that 4 and throw it up front, whatever is left behind goes into a pair of parentheses.
4 (____ + ____)
4(a + 6)
This is your factored form bc if you multiply that 4 back in you'll get the original expression back again.
4a + 24
= 4(a + 6)
It's like factoring is "un-distributive" property.
Theres a 3 in 3x and also in 12
3x - 12
= 3(x - 4)
Mr Akika has 18 21-cent stamp and 31 31-cent stamp.
He has 49 21-cent and 31-cent stamps all told.
let
x = number of 21 cent stamp
y = number of 31 cent stamp
Therefore,
<h3>Total number of stamp:</h3>
<h3>Total cost of stamp:</h3>
Therefore,
x + y = 49
21x + 31y = 1339
21x + 21y = 1029
10y = 310
y = 310 / 10
y = 31
Therefore,
x = 49 - 31
x = 18
Therefore, Mr Akika has 18 21-cent stamp and 31 31-cent stamp.
