Question 94170: HELP! I am showing you all of my work,
if I am the one making a mistake,
please point it out to me,
or,
this is a typo and needs to be addressed!
I have been stumped all day with two questions:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Factor completely.
b²-ab-6a²
A) (b + 3a)(b – 2a)
B) (b + 6a)(b – a)
C) (b – 3a)(b + 2a)
D) (b – 6a)(b + a)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(b²)-(ab)-(6a²)
Remove the parenthesis around the expression b².
b²-(ab)-(6a²)
Multiply -1 by the ab inside the parenthesis.
b²-ab-(6a²)
Multiply -1 by the 6a² inside the parenthesis.
b²-ab-6a²
Reorder the polynomial b²-ab-6a²
alphabetically from left to right,
starting with the highest order term.
-6a² - ab + b²
Answer:
-6a² - ab + b²
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Factor.
50x3 – 90x2
A) 50x2(x – 90)
B) –10x2(–5x – 90)
C) –50x(x2 – 90x)
D) –10x2(–5x + 9)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(90x²)-(50x³)
Remove the parenthesis around the expression 90x².
90x²-(50x³)
Multiply -1 by the 50x³ inside the parenthesis.
90x²-50x³
Reorder the polynomial 90x²-50x³
alphabetically from left to right,
starting with the highest order term.
-50x³+90x²
Factor out the GCF of -10x² from the expression -50x³
-10x²(5x)+90x²
Factor out the GCF of -10x² from the expression 90x².
-10x²(5x)-10x²(-9)
Factor out the GCF of -10x² from -50x³+90x².
-10x²(5x-9)
Answer:
-10²(5x-9)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
