Talia noticed that she does not have a common factor. What should she do? Talia needs to leave the polynomial as is because it is prime and cannot be factored. Talia needs to factor out a 3x from the first group and a 4x from the second group. Talia needs to factor out a negative from one of the groups so the binomials will be the same. Talia needs to apply the distributive property to get the expression (3x 4)(5x – 1).
