SIMPLE Factoring by Grouping

Mathematics
1 answer:
brilliants [131]3 years ago
7 0
Group together the terms that have "like" variables or constants in them. The first 2 terms both have an x, but the second 2 don't, so the first two are grouped together. The second 2 terms, while they do not have a common variable, both have the number 2. So those are grouped together.
(xa - xb) - (2a + 2b)--> x(a-b) - 2(a-b). Now you can actually factor out the like term (a-b) to get this: (a-b)(x-2).

The ratio is supposed to be pennies to total amount of coins. The total amount of coins--including pennies--is 16. This can be proven by this equation:

5 + 6 + 5 = 16

Now you put the ratio together by taking the amount of pennies (5) and total amount of coins (16). Your ratio should look like this:

5:16
