OpenStudy (uri):

What do you think? I'm seeing you are just asking new questions and closing them.@friguglietti17

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas where to start?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. I really have just forgotten everything over the summer and this is for a packet I've had to do over the summer for honors algebra.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\Huge 2n^3+6n^2+8n$$

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Do you see any common factors?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All of them? I'm sorry if I'm asking dumb questions or have sstupid replys, i really dont remember anything.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

What do you mean by ALL of them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2n, 6n and 8 n?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

What is a factor?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2, 6 and 8

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

2, 6 and 8 are the coefficients.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So then 2n 6n and 8n?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Nope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ugh

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

When two or more numbers are multiplied each of the numbers is a factor of the product.
