Answer: What is a factor?

A factor is a a divisor of an integer n, also called a factor of n, is an integer m that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n. In this case, one also says that n is a multiple of m. An integer n is divisible by another integer m if m is a divisor of n; this implies dividing n by m leaves no remainder.

Step-by-step explanation: Why can’t certain expressions be factored?

Because there are no common factors other than 1 the constants cannot be factored. And, because there is no x in the second term (10), we cannot factor an x out of the two terms.

Open or closed circle? What is the answer for the number line? What is the solution?

To isolate m, we'll multiply both sides by 8.

We go from m/8 < 4 to m < 32

This describes any number smaller than 32. We aren't including 32 itself, so we have an open circle at 32 on the number line. The shading is to the left since everything to the left of 32 is smaller than 32.
