Essentially you need to find some common factor between two terms and then group them. It is slightly to conceptualize and understand. an ez method is <span>(a)(c) = n

so if i have ax + bx + c then i need to find the product of a and c (n)  and then find two numbers that are multiply to n and add to b
</span>
So EXAMPLE TIME:

2x² + 5x + 3

n = 6
3 x 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5

2x^2 + 3x + 2x + 3

(2x^{2} + 2x) + (3x + 3)

2x(x+1) + 3(x+1)    Now we can group!

(2x+3)(x+1)

The population of Clarksville is about 6,000 people. What is the population written as a whole number multiplied by a power of t
kupik [55]
Well 6,000 is actually equal to 1,000 x 6.

It turns out that 1,000 = 10 x 10 x 10 = 10^3

So the answer to your question is:

6 x 10^3

Whats the improper fraction equivalent to 5 5/9
jeka57 [31]
The answer is 50/9.

Explanation:

To convert mixed numbers to improper fractions, I remember MAD (multiply, add, denominator).

Step 1 (M):  Multiply the denominator (9) by the whole number (5).  You should get 45.

Step 2 (A):  Add the numerator (5) to the number you just got (45).  45 + 5 = 50.

Step 3 (D):  Take the number you have (50) and put it over the denominator (9).  Your final answer is 50/9.
