Prime factorization is when the numbers are divided until they cannot be divided anymore.
For example, the number 18.
18/2 = 9
9/3 = 3
So the prime factorization is 2,3,3
As it says use exponents: There are 2 threes. 3 x 3 is the same as 3²
3² x 2 should be your answer
hope this helps
Commutative property of multiplication is just mixing up the order but the answer stays the same.
Examples: 4 + 5 + 6 = 6 + 4 + 5 ; (a)(d) = (d)(a) ;
Answer:
(-16)(y) or/and (y)(-16)
4x2-36=0
+36 +36
4x2=36
Divide by 4
X2=9
Square root of x2 is x and the square root of 9 is 3
X=3
I think the answer was a option c
