Answer:
step 1. <2 + 40° = <1
step 2. <1 + 72° = 180°
step 3. <1 = 108°
step 4. <2 = 108° - 40° = 68°.
Example:15/5=1/3 so that's an example
<h2>Question: Factor: 4x2 + 4x</h2>
Find the GCF.

Factor out the GCF.

Simplify each term in parentheses.

Hence, the answer is 4x(x + 1).
<h2 /><h2>Question: Expand: -(x - 3) </h2>
Remove parentheses.

Regroup terms.

Therefor, the answer is 3 - x.
In mathematics, a polynomial is an algebraic expression containing more than two terms. When the polynomial could not be reduced to a lower degree, it is classified as a prime polynomial. Just like whole numbers, a prime polynomial cannot be broken down into factors except 1 and by the number itself. Take for example, the polynomial x² + 5x + 6. It can be reduces to its factors x=-2 and -3. That would be expressed to x² + 5x + 6 = (x+2)(x+3). But if the polynomial is, say, x² + 5x + 7, there is no roots that are whole numbers. Therefore, it can't be reduced into factored groups because it is a prime polynomial.
