Answer:
3x(x - 4)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x³ - 6x² - 24x ← factor out common factor of 3x from each term
= 3x(x² - 2x - 8) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
The factors are - 4 and + 2, since
- 4 × 2 = - 8 and - 4 + 2 = - 2, thus
x² - 2x - 8 = (x - 4)(x + 2) and
3x³ - 6x² - 24x = 3x(x - 4)(x + 2)
G = x
Felicia is Gabriella's age + 6
F = x + 6
Their mother is twice Felicia's age
M = 2(x + 6) or 2x + 12
Tanya is the age of their mother plus Gabriella's age
A = 2x + 12 + x = 3x + 12
3x + 12
A. 30 sixth graders
b. 12 sixth graders
c. If the school has 40 students and the total of students is 70, the number of sixth graders is x
d. 36 students
