Question

Some one help me? I got part A but I think I need an opinion on it.. need help with part b and c

Answer 1

3x3y + 12xy - 3x2y - 12y

Part A: Rewrite the expression so that the GCF is factored completely. (3 points)

Part B: Rewrite the expression completely factored. Show the steps of your work. (4 points)

Part C: If the two middle terms were switched so that the expression became 3x3y - 3x2y + 12xy - 12y, would the factored expression no longer be equivalent to your answer in part B? Explain your reasoning. (3 points)

Answer 4

what did u get for PartA ?

Answer 5

3y((x^2+4)(x-1))

Answer 6

i don't think it's right tho..

Answer 7

thats part B !

Answer 8

oh okay then i need help with a and c lol

Answer 9

for part A, you just leave it after factoring out the GCF :

\(\large 3x^3y + 12xy - 3x^2y - 12y\)

GCF = 3y, factor it out :

\(\large 3y(x^3 + 4x - 3x^2 - 4)\)

done wid PartA

Answer 10

for partB, you factor the stuff inside parenthesis... and then u wud get the factored form which u had shown earlier

Answer 11

gah sorry my internet messed up :(

Answer 12

you still there?
