Answer 2

kind of a random collection of assignments tonight isn't it?
leave all your homework for right before the end of the semester?
\[-25x^3-10x^2\] common factor is \(-5x^2\) factor it out as the math teachers say

Answer 3

\[-5x^2(5x+2)\] should work nicely right?

Answer 4

Distribute it?

Answer 5

no dear it says "factor"
if you distribute it it is a good check on your answer though
if you get\[-25x^2-10x\] then you know the answer is right, if you get something else it is wrong

Answer 6

factor means to write as a product

Answer 7

Oh ok thanks
