Question

Multiplying and factoring polynomial expressions (9th grade)

Answer 1

1. 2(a^2 + 3a + 9)

2. 5(x^2 - 1)

3. 3(t + 8)(t - 2)

4. n(4 - n)

Explanation:

For 1, you can only factor out the constant from each.

For 2, you can also only factor out the constant, but remember that you include the 1 when dividing 5 by 5.

For 3, you can factor out the constant and the variables.

For 4, you can only factor out the variable.
