How do you know if the factors will have negatives or positives in them?

1 answer:

8 0

When using factoring by grouping, the replacement terms will both have the same sign of the original middle term. If the last term is negative, then the signs of the factors will have one of each sign with the “stronger” number (the larger absolute value) matching the middle term. hope this helps

Mrs. Cerra planted 4 ⅞ acres of wheat and 1 ⅝ acres of corn. How much more wheat did she plant than corn?

alukav5142 [94]

We can subtract the acres of corn from the acres of wheat.
$4 \frac{7}{8} - 1 \frac{5}{8} = 3 \frac{2}{8} = 3 \frac{1}{4}$
She planted 3 1/4 more acres of wheat than corn.
