My professor's answer was 3 x 3^3 but idk how she got that
OpenStudy (tkhunny):
Factor this: A + 2A
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3A
OpenStudy (tkhunny):
Now try \((3^{3} + 2\cdot 3^{3})\)
Hint: It is EXACTLY the same.

I'm sorry, but I still don't understand this.. :(

one apple and two apples are three apples
one \(3^3\) and two \(3^3\) are three \(3^3\) and \(3\times 3^3=3^{1+3}=3^4\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if your professor really wrote
\[3\times 3^3\] he/she was not paying attention
OpenStudy (zehanz):
Try to see it this way: you have: 3^3 + 2 • 3^3,
so this is 1 • 3^3 + 2 • 3^3 = 3 • 3^3 (you have 3 times 3^3).
Last step: 3 • 3^3 = 3 • 3•3•3 = 3^4
(=81, I fail to see why you would stop after writing it as 3^4, just calculate the outcome...)

Omg! Thank you! That helped :)
