Answer:

The factorization of the given expression is given as:


8(x+10)

Explanation:

To factor a algebraic equation means to represent it as the multiplication of the simple expressions.

( i.e. if the expression has a common multiple in each of the terms then we take it out and represent the rest of the expression in brackets.

Also, we can express a algebraic equation by the multiplication of the factors of the expression )

We are given a expression as:


8x+80 which represents the total amount in the account after 8 months.

and x represents the amount saved each month.

Since both the terms i.e. 8x and 80 have a common multiple as: 8

Hence, we take it out of the expression and write the resulting expression as follows:


8x+80=8(x+10)

Answer:


8(x+10)

Explanation:

we have the expression


(8x+80)

we know that


(8x+80)=(8x+8(10))

Factor the number 8


(8x+8(10))=8(x+10)

therefore

The expression factored is
8(x+10)
