How do I factor out the coefficient of the variable such as 1/3b -1/3?

It's very easy. We have a common multiple, in this case <em>1/3</em> and we need to factor it:

\frac{1}{3}b- \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3}(b-1)

Notice that if you distribute the <em>1/3</em> in again, you will end up with the same thing. So that's your answer. Hope I could help! :)

I think it is factored out like this:
1/3(b-1)

Write an equation expressing the volume of the box made by paper x by 16 from which a square with side length 2 is cut from each
Furkat [3]

Answer: V = 24*(x - 4) with the condition x > 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volme of a cube/box is equal to:

V = W*L*H

where W = width, L = lenght and H = heigth.

First:

We know that the cubes cut in the corner have a side length of 2.

Then the remaining part is folded up, and this is now the height.

So the height of the box is equal to 2.

Now, we know that the initial measures of the piece of paper are x by 16

But now, in each extreme, we subtracted 2 units, that are now the new heiht, so now the piece of paper is (x -2 -2) by (16 -2 - 2)

or (x - 4) by 12.

Then the volume of the box is:

V = (x -4)*12*2 = 24*(x -4)

Notice something, if x is equal or smaller than 4, then we have a negative volume or a volume equal to zero. Those are problems in our model, so we should use the condition x > 4.

Suppose that three astronauts outside a spaceship decide to play catch. all three astronauts have the same mass and are equally
Sloan [31]
<span>Since they are playing in the space, gravity or the lack of it plays a huge role here. When the first astronaut throws the second astronaut toward the third one and due to the force exerted they would be moving in the opposite direction and there won't be any catch. Hence the game does not continue after the first throw.</span>
