Seventy-six and nine tenths. (Formal)
Or
Seventy-six point nine (informal)
Answer:
x(x - 6)(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, the GCF of these 3 terms is x.
So to separate x from this it now becomes x(x^2 + 2x - 48).
Now to factor the expression inside the parentheses easily I use "a" and "b" to make it easier.
a + b = 2 (from 2x)
a * b = -48 (from third term of expression)
a = -6, b = 8
Substitute "a" and "b" and I get: x(x - 6)(x + 8)
The lengths are 40t because. if you add the w up and you get 40
