Question

10 Factorise completely

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorise completely

a 6x2 + 18x

Common factors

6x(x+3)

b 8y3 – 2y4

2y^3(4-y)

c 16xy – 8xy?

8xy(2-1)

8xy

8 Expand and simplify

a 4(x + 3) + 7(x - 1)

4x+12+7x-7

11x+5

b x(x – 6) – x(4x – 2)

x^2-6x-4x^2+2x

-3x^2-4x

-x(3x+4)

C x(3x2 + 4) + 2x(5x2 + 9)

3x^3+4x+10x^3+18x

13x^3+22x

x(13^2+22)
