Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

Group the first two terms and the last two terms.

(x^{2}−4x)+2xy−8y

Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from each group.

x(x−4)+2y(x−4)

Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor,  x−4.

(x−4)(x+2y)

I believe this is correct. Good luck.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

d = 0.666t , where d is in miles and t is in minutes.

d = 39.94h, where d is in miles and h is in hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A car travels 2\frac{1}{3} = 2.33 miles in 3\frac{1}{2} = 3.5 minutes at a constant speed.

Let the relation between the distance (d) traveled by car in miles after traveling t minutes is d = kt ......... (1)

Now, putting d = 2.33 miles and t = 3.5 minutes in the above equation we get,

2.33 = 3.5k

⇒ k = 0.666 (Approx.)

So, the equation (1) becomes d = 0.666t. (Answer)

Let us assume that the relation between the distance (D) traveled by car in miles after traveling h hours is d = Kh ............ (2)

Now, putting D = 2.33 miles and T = 3.5/60 = 0.058 hours in the above equation, we get

2.33 = 0.058K

⇒ K = 39.94

So, the equation (2) we get, d = 39.94h (Answer)
