i think it might be c but idk
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
it could also be a??
OpenStudy (ikram002p):
12xy^5+ 60x^4y^2 – 24x^3y^3
so its =12xy^2(y^3+5x^3-2x^2y)
so what do u think ?
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
uuuu h h h i'm a bit frazzled i have no idea i feel silly

u dnt know how to take a common factor of function ?
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
no i do know basically but. i've never done it with three only two
OpenStudy (ikram002p):
well lets do it for 2
Find the greatest common factor: 12xy^5+ 60x^4y^2
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
ok lets see
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):

OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
OH
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
yay! thank you!!!!
OpenStudy (ikram002p):
np :D

A.
3ac
B.
9a^2b^2c^2
C.
3abc

OpenStudy (ikram002p):
well try the same thing as before
Find the greatest common factor: 9a^3bc^2 + 12ac^4
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
yeah, i started with that.
3abc^2
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
3abc^2. thats what i got, but they don't give me any of those answers. :(
OpenStudy (ikram002p):
incorrect , see u have 3abc^2
but in this term 12ac^4 there is no b so we cant add be into the factor
nw Find the greatest common factor:3ac^2+ 15a^2b^3c
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
uhh okay lets see. 3ac^2? i'm sorry i don't think that's right

mmm ok
greatest common factor: 9a^3bc^2 + 12ac^4 is 3ac^2 right ?
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):

nw Find the greatest common factor:3ac^2+ 15a^2b^3c
for the finall answer
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
yeah i told you that already, and i know i've got a wrong answer because it's still 3ac^2! :( i don't know what i did wrong
OpenStudy (ikram002p):
its not c^2 check the second term there is only c
OpenStudy (brynnbrynn):
