GCF is the greatest common factor
We take GCF of numbers first and then we take GCF for variables
GCF of 4, 8, 4 is 4 because all the numbers are divisible by 4
For variable, lowest exponent is our GCF
GCF of 
is x^3
GCF of 
is y^2
So GCF is 4x^3y^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the trigonometric ratios in aright triangle :
Given: ΔBCA ~ ΔSTR
Since , corresponding angles of two similar triangles are equal.
So, ∠C = ∠T ...(i) [Middle letter]
In triangle STR
...(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we have
First consider (x+c)^2 where c is just a random constant. if we expand this by foil (which is distributive property twice), we get x^2 + 2cx+ c^2. we want to find c^2 and to do that, we can first find c. we can find c by looking at the 2cx term. this term should match with 12x, so therefore 2c = 12 so c = 6. this also implies that c^2 = 36.
note that for this problem i was working backwards which is a very powerful problem solving tool: start with what you want to attain, and then see how you can go from where you are now to get to your destination.

Answer:
−(7p+6)−2(−1−2p) = - 3p - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
−(7p+6)−2(−1−2p) = -7p - 6 + 2 + 4p
= (-7p + 4p) + (2 - 6)
= -(7p - 4p) - (6 - 2)
= - 3p - 4
