The correct factorization of this equation is (2y - 8)(x + 4).

In order to factor polynomials with 4 terms like this, you can often use a strategy called grouping. To do that, split into two different binomials.

(2xy + 8y) and (-8x - 32)

Now you can factor out the greatest common factor of each parenthesis.

2y(x + 4) and -8(x + 4)

Now in grouping, if after factoring out the greatest common factor, you can put the two things you pulled out in one parenthesis. You can multiply that by one of the matching set for the final answer.

(2y - 8)(x + 4)

A sales associate farms a neighborhood with 750 homes. The owners seem to list their homes every six years. How many listings sh
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

50 homes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of homes = 750

Years at which home is listed = 6

Thus average listing per year = (total number of homes / years)

Average listing per year = 750 / 6

Average listing per year = 125 homes

If 40% of homes in the neighborhood can be listed :

0.4 * 125

= 50 homes

The price for 11 ballpoint pens is $11.77. Which of the following represents the same price per pen? A. 4 pens for $4.44 B. 5 pe
Harrizon [31]
First we need to know how much each pen costs.  So we take 11.77 and divide it by 11.  That gives us 1.07 per pen.  So answer choice A has 4 pens for 4.44, so we need to multiply 1.07 x 4.  That gives you 4.28, so we know that isn't the correct answer.  For option B, we need to multiply 1.07 x 5.  That is 5.35, so that also can't be the answer.  For C, we need to do 1.07 x 6, and that gives us 6.42.  So we know the correct answer is option C.
