Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the second term (12) with the first term (40), and you'll get 0.3
This is correct because you get the terms in the correct order when multiplying:
(First term: 40. Common ratio: 0.3)
40 x 0.3 = <u>12</u>
<u>12</u> x 0.3<em> </em>= <em>3.6</em>
40, <u>12</u>, <em>3.6</em>

<span>Simplifying
4x2 + 8xy + 4y2
Reorder the terms:
8xy + 4x2 + 4y2
Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '4'.
4(2xy + x2 + y2)
Factor a trinomial.
4((x + y)(x + y))
Final result:
4(x + y)(x + y)</span>
Since both 4 and 6 are divisible by 2, it becomes 2/3<span />
