Question

Use the GCF of the terms to write the expression as the product of two factors with integer coefficients.

-2x3 - 4x2 + 4x
A. x(-2x2 - 4x + 4)

B. -2x(x2 + 2x - 2)

C. x(-2x2 + 2x - 2)

D. -2x(-2x2 + 2x - 2)

Answer 1

first look at the numbers in each term
what is the GCF of -2,-4 and 4?

Answer 2

and the GCF of x^2, x^3 and x?

Answer 3

the GCF is the greatest number which will divide exactly in to 3 numbers

Answer 4

* ie into -2 -4 and 4

Answer 5

So then A. Right? @cwrw238

Answer 6

no - the GCF of the numbers is -2
and GCF of terms in x is x

Answer 7

its B
