Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't see the factorisation that the students did. That is, Danny, Carlos and Irene. You either forgot to upload, or you couldn't.

However, I will factorise the expression for you, while you check you book to know who did the exact same factorisation.

28x - 8

This equation can be factorised when divided by 2, into

2(14x - 4)

At the same time, it can be factorised when divided by 4, into

4(7x - 2)

Basically, either of the students who choose between 2(14x - 4) and 4(7x - 2) is/are whom you'd pick for your answer.
