Question

b2(p + 3) + q(p + 3) In factored form... I'm still working on it the way she taught me...

Answer 1

\(ab+ac=a(b+c)\)

Answer 2

that absolutely does nothing to help me. I don't understand why but I think the answer is (b^2*p)(q+3)

Answer 3

b^2(p + 3) + q(p + 3) - Factoring by Grouping

The terms b^2 *(p + 3) and q*(p + 3) have a common factor of (p + 3).

Answer 4

That wasn't the right answer.

Answer 5

Factor out (p+3) in this way:

b^2 *(p + 3) and q*(p + 3) =

(p + 3)* ( b^2 + q)

Answer 6

By the commutative property, that answer can also be written as:

(b^2 + q) ( p + 3)

Answer 7

I was talking about my guess.
