2(x+6)

What you do is find the greatest common factor between the two terms.
Then you put that number outside the parenthesis and divide the terms inside by that number.
Here's my work:
2x+12
2x/2=x
12/2=6
2(x+6)

Kyle asked a random group of students what their favorite sport was. The results are below. Boys Girls Basketball 10 8 Football

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football is 12.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

Boys Girls Total

Basketball 10 8 18

Football 25 7 32

Soccer 9 19 28

Baseball 18 22 40

Total 62 56 118

Compute the probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football as follows:

$P(F|G)=\frac{n(G\cap F)}{n(G)}$

$=\frac{7}{56}\\\\=0.125\\\\=12.5\%$

Thus, the probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football is 12.5%.
