Question 1194584: 1/2 (m+1)(3m + 2) + (3m+4)
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + ________ ]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + 6m+8]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2)+(3m+2)+(3m+6)]
=1/2 [(m+2)(3m+2)+___________ ]
=1/2 (m+2)(3m+5)
=1/2 [(m+1)+1][3(m+1)+2]

here are my answers
1/2 (m+1)(3m + 2) + (3m+4)
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + 2(3m+4)]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + 6m+8]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2)+(3m+2)+(3m+6)]
=1/2 [(m+2)(3m+2)+3(m+2)]
=1/2 (m+2)(3m+5)
=1/2 [(m+1)+1][3(m+1)+2]
Please help, thanks

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you have %281%2F2%29%28m%2B1%29%283m+%2B+2%29+%2B+%283m%2B4%29 to simplify and see which of following is simplified form
%281%2F2%29%28m%2B1%29%283m+%2B+2%29+%2B+%283m%2B4%29........multiply %281%2F2%29%28m%2B1%29%283m+%2B+2%29+
%281%2F2%29%283m%5E2+%2B+5m+%2B+2%29+%2B+%283m%2B4%29
3m%5E2%2F2+%2B+5m%2F2+%2B+2%2F2+%2B+3m%2B4
%283m%5E2%29%2F2+%2B+%2811m%29%2F2+%2B+5
%283m%5E2%29%2F2+%2B+%2811m%29%2F2+%2B+10%2F2
%281%2F2%29%283m%5E2+%2B+11m+%2B+10%29.........factor 3m%5E2+%2B+11m+%2B+10
%281%2F2%29%283m+%2B+5%29%28m+%2B+2%29=> your answer
and, you already did it by your self
1/2 (m+1)(3m + 2) + (3m+4)
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + 2(3m+4)]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2) + 6m+8]
=1/2 [(m+1)(3m+2)+(3m+2)+(3m+6)]
=1/2 [(m+2)(3m+2)+3(m+2)]
=%281%2F2+%29%28m%2B2%29%283m%2B5%29-> you needed to stop here
