Answer:
Options (3), (4) and (5)
Step-by-step explanation:
1). a² - 9a + 7ab + 63b
= a(a - 9) + 7b(a + 9)
Now we can not solve this problem further.
Therefore, can't be factored by grouping.
2). 3a + 4ab - b - 12
= a(3 + 4b) - 1(b - 12)
We can't solve it further.
Therefore, can't be factored by grouping.
3). ab + 6b - 2a - 12
= b(a + 6) - 2(a + 6)
= (b - 2)(a + 6)
We can be factored this expression by grouping.
4). x³ + 9x²+ 7x + 63
= x²(x + 9) + 7(x + 9)
= (x² + 7)(x + 9)
Therefore, the given expression can be factored by grouping.
5). ay² + a - y² - 1
= a(y² + 1) - 1(y² + 1)
= (a - 1)(y² + 1)
This expression can be factored by the grouping method.
Options (3), (4) and (5) are the correct answers.

I realise this is quite late but in case you still wanted the answer, the width is 3m.
If the length is 3m longer than the width, you can write the width as x and the length as x + 3. The perimeter would be both lengths and both widths added together, so you would just write it as:
x + x + x + 3 + x + 3 = 18
4x + 6 = 18
- 6
4x = 12
÷ 4
x = 3
I hope this helps!
Answer:
<h2>A, B, D, E</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
2(2x + 1) = (2)(2x) + (2)(1) = 4x + 2 → A
<em>used distributive property</em>
2(2x + 1) = 2(1 + 2x) → B
<em>used commutative property</em>
2(2x + 1) = (2x + 1) + (2x + 1) = 2x + 1 + 2x + 1 → D
<em>used 2a = a + a</em>
2(2x + 1) = 4x + 2 = x + x + x + x + 1 + 1 → E
<em>used 4x = x + x + x + x and 2 = 1 + 1</em>
