(3n-6)n ------- = -2(n-2) A. -n B. -3n/4 C. -n/2 D. -3n/2
The answer is D however idk how to get that
\[\frac{ (3n-6)n }{ -2(n-2) }=\frac{ 3n^2-6n }{ -2(n-2) }\]
How???
\[=\frac{ 3n(n-2) }{ -2(n-2) }\]
what u get when u multiply 3n-6 with n?
3n squared
and 6n
yep
YAY
\[=\frac{ 3n^2-6n }{ -2(n-2) }\] now factorise 3n for the numerator only
you will get \[=\frac{ 3n(n-2) }{ -2(n-2) }\]
and you did that how again
facotrise 3n for the numerator only
factorise*
ik but how what did you use to do that
Sorry I get really confused on these type of questions
Thinking, of how to explain it to me?
Well, sometime we used GCF to see what's GCF in terms inside of parenthesis, then factor that out. \(\text{GCF}(3n^2,6n) = 3n\)\ so factor \(3n\) out.
I don't think I've learn GCF which is making me wonder why are they giving me this to study for my end of year test, oh dear
so basically I don't know how to use GCF so can someone explain that to me
