Answer:

To be able to factor effectively we need positive prime factors; so we use the description polynomial to show an easier approach should numbers divide.

12 = (2) (2) (3)

We can compare that 2 as an integer is a prime factor, a prime factor is used as nothing else can divide into it other than 1 or itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor of polynomial P(x) is any polynomial which divides evenly into P(x). For example, x + 2 is a factor of the polynomial x2 – 4. The factorization of a polynomial is its representation as a product its factors. For example, the factorization of x2 – 4 is (x – 2)(x + 2).

Solve for the indicated variable. Include all of your work in your answer. Submit your solution. P = 3r + 2s; for s.
madam [21]
<h3>Given</h3>

P = 3r + 2s

<h3>Find</h3>

the corresponding equation for s

<h3>Solution</h3>

First of all, look at how this is evaluated in terms of what happens to a value for s.

  1. s is multiplied by 2
  2. 3r is added to that product

To solve for s, you undo these operations in reverse order. The "undo" for addition is adding the opposite. The "undo" for multiplication is division (or multiplication by the reciprocal).

... P = 3r + 2s . . . . . . starting equation

... P - 3r = 2s . . . . . . -3r is added to both sides to undo addition of 3r

... (P -3r)/2 = s . . . . . both sides are divided by 2 to undo the multiplication

Note that the division is of everything on both sides of the equation. That is why we need to add parentheses around the expression that was on the left—so the whole thing gets divided by 2.

Your solution is ...

... s = (P - 3r)/2
