Part A: Simplify the expression above.


Part B: Factor your simplified expression completely

___(__+__)

Answer 1

4(2x+1) . I just needed points so I could ask a question lol

Answer 2

-6x + 4 3/4 + 14x - 0.75

Part a: combine like terms:

-6x + 14x = 8x

4 3/4 - 0.75 = 4

The equation is now 8x + 4

Part B : factor by pulling out largest common factor:

4 goes into 8 two times and 4 goes into 4 once:

The factored equation is: 4(2x+1)
