Answer:

(3x+2)(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x+2)(x+4) = (3x)(x) + (3x)(4) + (2)(x) + (2)(4)

= 3x² + 12x + 2x + 8 *****

= 3x² + 14x + 8

You start by figuring it will be in the form of (3x + a)(x + b) because 3 doesn't factor. The two middle terms in the line followed by the stars must add up to 14x. And in (3x + a)(x + b), ab must be equal to the 8 on the end (the constant factor).

For most people, factoring takes a LOT of practice. And somethimes you just have to try a lot of factors before you hit the right combination. But if you do it enough, it really does get easier to 'see' the answer a lot of the time.

Hope this helped!

<h3>Answer: Choice A. 8pi  feet</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

The perimeter around the circle is known as the circumference

The full circumference of a circle with radius r is

C = 2*pi*r

In this case, r = 16 is the radius, so,

C = 2*pi*r

C = 2*pi*16

C = 2*16*pi

C = 32pi

is the full distance around the circle. But we only want 90/360 = 1/4 of that total distance. So take 1/4 of 32pi to get

(1/4)*32pi = (1/4*32)pi = 8pi

The arc length is exactly 8pi feet long

Approximately this is about 25.13274 feet
