Sounds like rearranging to me:

P=2(a+b) -- expand brackets
P=2a+2b -- subtract 2a
P-2a=2b -- divide by 2

b=(P-2a)/2

P=2(a+b)\\
P=2a+2b\\
2b=P-2a\\
b=\frac{P-2a}{2}

Find the GCF<br> 50x^4, -10x^5, 2x^6
shtirl [24]

Answer:

2 x^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the GCF is the greatest of the product of factors that are common to all these three expressions

then for the pure numerical part, the factor common to 50, -10 , and 2 is "2"

and for the variable part x^4 is the largest common to all three expressions.

Therefore the GCF is: 2 x^4
