You would take out a 4x out of both terms because this is a common factor
4x^3-36x
4x(x^2-9)
and then you would notice that (x^2-9) is a difference of squares, so that factors out too
4x(x-3)(x+3)
that is all you can factor! hope this helps
8÷(3-(8÷3))
8 divided by 3 minus 8 divided by 3.
Make sure to include the brackets otherwise the answer will not work.
Answer:
6 apples, 21 apples, 30 apples respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us first start by writing <u>expressions</u> so that we can easily solve for the problems below.
Let us suppose Alice is x. In this case, Claire has 3 times Alice's apples, so 3x.
1. If Alice has 2 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*2=<u>6 apples</u>
Claire has 6 apples.
2. If Alice has 7 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*7=<u>21 apples</u>
Claire has 21 apples.
<u />
3. If Alice has 10 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*10=<u>30 apples</u>
Claire has 30 apples.
