<h3>Answer: 2(13a-5)</h3>

Work Shown:

The GCF of 26 and 10 is 2. This is the largest factor that goes into both.

26a = 2*13a

10 = 2*5

So,

26a - 10 = 2*13a - 2*5 = 2(13a-5)

I'm using the distributive property to factor the 2 out.

A rectangle has an area of 40 square units. the length is 6 units greater than the width.

masha68 [24]

A=L*W
Let w be width
L=(w+6)
40=(w+6)*w
40= $w^{2} +6w$
$w^{2} +6w-40$ =0
$w^{2}+10w-4w-40=0$
w(w+10)-4(w+10)=0
(w-4)(w+10)=0
w=4
Length= 10 units
Width=4 units

You need to replace the molding around a floor that is 15 feet long and 23 feet 6 inches wide. The molding sells for $0.50 per f

Misha Larkins [42]

The price of the molding is given $ per ft, so we convert all units to ft:

23 ft 6 in = 23,5 ft, since 12 in=1 ft, so 6 in= 0.5 ft.

Thus the dimensions of the floor are 15 ft × 23.5 ft. We have 2 sides of the wall with a length of 23.5 ft, and the other 2 sides with length 15 ft.

The molding around the floor has a length of 2*15+2*23.5=30+47=77 (ft)

The cost is 77 (ft) * 0.5($ per ft) = 77*0.5 $ = 38.5 $

Answer: $ 38.5
