Question

Factor the expression completely

Answer 1

The answer most factored would be b as 8(y-4)

Answer 2

Factor : 8y - 36

Go through all of the answer choices & see which one is correct.

a) -4 (2y + 9)

You don't even have to fully simplify this, just by looking at the -4, you already know that this is incorrect because you need to have a positive 8. So, A is incorrect. 

b) 8 (y - 4)

Simplify.

8y - 32

Incorrect because it is not equal to the original equation.

c) 2 (4y - 18)

Simplify.

8y - 36

Correct answer because it is equal to the original equation.

d) 4(2y - 9)

Simplify.

8y - 36

D is also correct.

So, your answer is : (C) and (D) are your answers.
