The dimensions of the prism can be 2x, 2x+3 and x+6.
We first factor out the GCF of the trinomial. The GCF of the coefficients is 2. Each term has an x in common as well, so the GCF is 2x.
Factoring out the 2x, we have
2x(2x²+15x+18).
To factor the remaining trinomial, we find factors of 2*18=36 that sum to 15. 12*3 = 36 and 12+3 = 15. We split up 15x into 12x and 3x:
2x(2x²+12x+3x+18)
Now we group together the first two terms in parentheses and the last two:
2x((2x²+12x)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the first group:
2x(2x(x+6)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the second group:
2x(2x(x+6)+3(x+6))
Factoring out what these have in common,
2x(x+6)(2x+3)
The greatest common factor is 4.

the left of the bar should be 5 1/8 from the center
to find how far from the left side to place the bar
13 1/6 - 5 1/8 =
get a common denominator
13 4/24 - 5 3/24= 8 1/24 inches
Answer: place the bar 8 1/24 inches from each edge
False, because it would no longer be 18 alone because of the disturbutive property.
