will medal plz help Factor completely 4xy + 9x + 24y + 54. (2 points) (4y − 9)(x − 6) (4y − 9)(x + 6) (4y + 9)(x − 6) (4y + 9)(x + 6)

OpenStudy (tomy12345):

can you plz help @welshfella

OpenStudy (welshfella):

we factor these by grouping 4xy + 9x + 24y + 54 = x(4y + 9) + 6(4y + 9) as you see 4y+9 is common to 2 parts can - you continue?

OpenStudy (tomy12345):

oh i see what me problem was I was trying to find the GFC of the coaffients to but seems I had to only have the x-variable GFC.

OpenStudy (tomy12345):
