Question

Whats the answer to this?​

Answer 1

X(x+1)(x+8)

Explanation:

U just have to find the comment number

Answer 2

`(x)(x^(2) +9x+8)`

Explanation:

GCF is a way to simplify a polynomial by separating out one factor.

GCF

GCF stands for greatest common factor. This means the GCF is the largest number that is a factor of each term.

For example, the GCF of 15 and 25 is 5 because that is the greatest common factor between the 2 numbers.

Finding the GCF

To find the GCF, first look at the coefficients of each term.

• In order, the coefficients are 1, 9, and 8

These numbers have no shared factors besides 1, which doesn't help because factoring out 1 does nothing.

However, next, we can move on to the variables. You can factor out variables the same way you do constants.

• All of the terms share a GCF of x.

Factoring Out X

The question states that we only need to do GCF to solve. So, we can just factor out x. Remember that factoring is like dividing each term by x.

The completely factored expression is:

• 
  `(x)(x^(2) +9x+8)`

Here we have divided each term by x and then added x as a new factor in the expression.
