<PRE><B>Question 607737</B>
can you explain to me how i would solve this i am so confused.
Equations are solved, this is not an equation.
------------
Factor completely: -12x3y5 - 9x2y2 + 12xy3
All coefficients have a factor of 3.
{{{-12x^3y^5 - 9x^2y^2 + 12xy^3 = 3*(-4x^3y^5 - 3x^2y^2 + 4xy^3)}}}
All terms have an x
= {{{3x*(-4x^2y^5 - 3xy^2 + 4y^3)}}}
All terms have a y^2
= {{{3xy^2*(-4x^2y^3 - 3x + 4y)}}}
