Question

Factor 5w^2+20w+20 I'm not sure how to write this out and I am still a little shaky with Factoring help? Will provide Medal

Answer 1

first find the GCF or Greatest Common Factor which in this case would be 4 because that is what they all have in common.

Answer 2

whoops I meant 5 :) then you would divide all of them by 5

Answer 3

so your answer would be whatever you have to multiply by 5 to get that answer. In this case it would be w^2+4w+4

Answer 4

\(\def\Syd{\bf\Huge\color{lime}{\Huge\circledS}_\color{blue}{Y_\color{red}{D}\color{yellow}{T}\color{aqua}{H}_\color{darkmagenta}{E}\color{darkorange}{K}^\color{chartreuse}{I}_\color{crimson}{D}\color{blueviolet}{9}\color{blue}{1}\color{fuchsia}{3}^\ddot{\smile}}\color{lime}{♫}}\Syd\)

Answer 5

You would have to find the greatest common factor, which would be 5. Then you would divide everything by 5, it should give you 1w^2+4w+4. But it should be written 5(1w^2+4w+4)

Answer 6

Thanks guys
