The answer would be D
multiply -2 and (-4m-8) to get 8m+16
then subtract -2m to get 6m+16
42x can be factored into 7(6x), and 49 is square, meaning it can be factored into 7 squared. I believe the factored expression would be 7(6x + 7) because 7 is the greatest common factor between both numbers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient of x is simply a number. The x gives it it's meaning. So if the coefficient of x changed from 2 to 6 that would mean there would 6 x's being added to five, not 2.
For example if x=2.
instead of 5 + 2*2
(which equals 9)
it would be 5 + 6*2
(which equals 17).
The difference between the answers is 4x, as there are an additional 4x's.
Hope this helps :)
