Question

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Charles factors the expression 4/3xy+1/3x using a factor of 1/3x. He writes the factored expression as 1/3x(4y+1). Which best describes the accuracy of Charles’s solution?
His solution is accurate.
His solution is inaccurate. The factor does not divide evenly into both terms.
His solution is inaccurate. The factoring of 4/3xy using the given GCF is incorrect.
His solution is inaccurate. The factoring of 1/3xy using the given GCF is incorrect.

Answer 1

The solution is indeed accurate.

Answer 2

Option A. His solution is accurate.

Explanation:

Charles factors the expression
`(4)/(3)(xy)+(1)/(3)x`

Let's factorize the given expression

We will take out
`(1)/(3)(x)` common from the given expression

`(1)/(3)x[(4y)+1]`

After analyzing Charles process of factorizing we can conclude that his solution is accurate.

Option A. is the solution.
