Question

What is the completely factored form of the expression 16X2 +18X+32

Answer 1

ANSWER

$2(8 {x}^{2} + 9x + 16)$

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

$16 {x}^{2} + 18x + 32$

The greatest common factor is 2.

We factor 2 to obtain:

$2(8 {x}^{2} + 9x + 16)$

The expression in the parenthesis is prime.

This means that the quadratic expression in the parenthesis cannot be factored.

Hence the completely factored form is:

$2(8 {x}^{2} + 9x + 16)$

Answer 2

Answer:

2(8 {x}^{2}  + 9x + 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2 is the gcf so you factor it out
2. now it is unfactorable
