Is there a picture? I cannot answer without a picture
The correct answer is three.
20+(-3.05)+(-9.8)=20-3.05-9.8=7.15
Factor the following:
15 x y - 45 x - 6 y + 18
Factor 3 out of 15 x y - 45 x - 6 y + 18:
3 (5 x y - 15 x - 2 y + 6)
Factor terms by grouping. 5 x y - 15 x - 2 y + 6 = (5 x y - 2 y) + (6 - 15 x) = y (5 x - 2) - 3 (5 x - 2):
3 y (5 x - 2) - 3 (5 x - 2)
Factor 5 x - 2 from y (5 x - 2) - 3 (5 x - 2):
Answer: 3 (5 x - 2) (y - 3)
