Answer:

(a-2b)(3b-c)

Step-by-step explanation:

3ab-6b^2-2bc+ac

Let's rearrange

3ab+ac-6b^2-2bc

Let's factorise

a(3b+c)-2b(3b+c)

(a-2b)(3b+c)

Since the answer cannot be solved further

The answer is (a-2b)(3b+c)

Answer:

(3b + c)(a - 2b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3ab - 6b² - 2bc + ac ← Rearranging

= 3ab + ac - 6b² - 2bc (factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= a(3b + c) - 2b(3b + c) ← factor out (3b + c) from each term

= (3b + c)(a - 2b)

Let F be a field, and suppose a EF, a *0. Prove that a has a unique multiplicative inverse.

bezimeni [28]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let F be a field .Suppose $a\in F$ and $a\neq 0$

We have to prove that a has unique multiplicative inverse.

Suppose a has two inverses b and c

Then, $ac=1,ab=1$ where 1 =Multiplicative identity

$ac=ab$

$c=b$ (cancel a on both sides)

Hence, a has unique multiplicative inverse.
