quadruple means 4 times

anonymous · Answer

yes

mathstudent55 · Answer

offices = y
desks = 4y
chairs = 2(4y) = 8y

anonymous · Answer

thanks for the medal is that all i need ?

mathstudent55 · Answer

Part a. is: 2, 4, y
Those are the factors.

mathstudent55 · Answer

Now you need part b.
When simplified, 2 * 4 * y = 8y
Since y is the same as $y^1$, that is a first degree expression.
Also, since the expression 8y is a single term, it is a monomial.
Putting it all together, 8y is a first degree monomial.
