It is answer choice A because you have to take the the GCF of each number which is 2x. Then if you were to divide the numbers by 2x you would put those numbers in the brackets.

Answer:
49 + 28 = 7(7 + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
49 bags of soil one week
28 bags of soil the next week
49 + 28 bags of soil purchased in total
Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 49 and 28.
49/7 = 7
28/7 = 4 (GCF is 7 since it is the largest number that can divide both 49 and 28 equally)
Factor out the GCF + rewrite division above (optional for visualization)
49/7 = 7 -> 49 = 7 * 7
28/7 = 4 -> 28 = 7 * 4
49 + 28 = 7(7 + 4)
Let me know if you have any questions!
Given that the debt has been represented by the function:
f(x)=-6x^2+8x+50
To get the number of years, x that it would take for the company to be debt free we proceed as follows:
we solve the equation for f(x)=0
hence:
0=-6x^2+8x+50
solving for x using the quadratic formula we get:
x=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/2a
x=[-8+/-sqrt(8^2-4*(-6)*50)]/(-6*2)
x=[-8+/-√1264]/(-12)
x=27.552
x~28
