Factor 28+56t+28w28+56t+28w28, plus, 56, t, plus, 28, w to identify the equivalent expressions. Choose 2 answers:
Effectus [21]

Answer: The factorization of  28+56t+28w =28(1+2t+w)

The factors of 28+56t+28w are 28 and 1+2t+w.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression : 28+56t+28w

To factorize it, we need to find the common factor.

As 56 can be written as 2 x 28.

So, the above expression would become

28+2\times28t+28w

Now, taking 28 as common from all the terms, we will get

28(1+2t+w)

Thus, the factorization of  28+56t+28w =28(1+2t+w)

And the factors of  28+56t+28w are 28 and 1+2t+w.

What is the equation of a line that passes through (1,5) and (3,11)? Show work please.
jekas [21]
First, find the gradient/slope:
Use slope formula:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(11-5)/(3-1)
=6/2
=3
Then use the line equation formula:
y=mx+c
You can substitute (1,5) if you like, also must substitute the slope as well!
5=3x1+c
c=2
Then find the full equation, which gives you the answer:
y=3x+2
