The GCF we factor out is 4a
8ab = 4a*2b
16ac = 4a*4c
12a = 4a*3
Each term has been factored so that 4a is a factor
Using those factorizations, we can use the distributive property in reverse
8ab - 16ac + 12a = 4a*2b - 4a*4c + 4a*3
8ab - 16ac + 12a = 4a*(2b - 4c + 3)
Answer is choice A<span />
First, expand the terms inside the bracket you will get







Answer:
x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
ok so since lines PR and RQ are congruent (we know because of the lines on them), that means angles P and Q are also equal.
now we can set up the equation to find x like this:
29+29+(8x-14)=180 (180 because the three angles of a triangle always equal 180)
x=17
