1.) 4(x+3)
Find the GCF, Greatest Common Factor, of 4x and 12.
4x=2*2*x
12=3*2*2
The greatest common factor is 4. Put this outside of the parentheses. (You would multiply the 2*2)
Then, put the rest of the factors as a sum. (Only the factors on the same line.)
Solution: 4(x+3)
To check, distribute to see if it works.
4x+12
2.) 2(4r+7)
Find the GCF of 8r and 14
8r=2*2*2*r
14= -1*7*2
The greatest common factor is 2. (There is only 1 two, so you would not multiply them.)
Then, put the rest of the factors as a sum. (Only the factors on the same line.)
Multiply the 2*2*r as one addend and the -1*7 as the other.
Solution: 2(4r-7)
To check, distribute to see if it works.
8r-14
Do you get it now?
3.) 5(x+7)
4.) 7(2x+1)
5.) Cannot be factored.
32x-15
Find the GCF of 32x and -15
32x: 2*2*2*2*2*x
-15: -1*5*3
Because there are no similar factors other than 1, it cannot be factored.
6.) 8(4x+3)
7.) 3(2x-3)
8.) 24(1x+2)
9.) 9(-2x+8)
10.) Cannot be factored
11.) 8(1x+3)
12.) 50(1x+5)
Answer:
m=1
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: 8(m + 2) = 3(12 - 4m) remove the parentheses
step 2: 8 m + 2 = 3 12 - 4m move the terms
step 3: 8m+ 12m= 36 - 16 collect like terms and calulate
step 4: 20m=20 divide both sides
solution: m=1
It would take Emily a little over 6 hours to get to her friends house.
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x+5)=-4x-30
-4x-20=-4x+30
no solution
x cancel
Answer:
9 and 3/8 left over
Step-by-step explanation:
to calculate this you have to convert the cups to eighths so:
8 cups*8= 64/8
1/4*2= 2/8
64/8+ 2/8= 66/8
66 divided by 7= 9 and 3/8
