Answer:
Factoring a monomial means breaking it down into each individual prime number and/or variable factor. This is also called "expanding" a monomial.
Step-by-step explanation:
C= two step equations require all number to be whole number in order to solve.
Here is an example that disproves that:
.5x + 8= 18
<u> -8 -8</u>
<u>.5</u>x = <u>10
</u>.5 .5
x = 20 (.5 is certainly not a whole number but I solved it anyway)
