(08.01, 8.02 mc) i need ! answer with all the steps ! an expression is shown below: 4m3  + 12xm2  − 8m2  − 24xmpart a:   rewrite the expression so the gcf is factored completely. (4 points)part b:   rewrite the expression completely factored. show the steps of your work. (6 points)

Part A:

So remember that GCF is Greatest Common Factor, or what the greatest number that divides nicely between terms. And if we look at this expression, we see that 4 is the GCF, but we see as well that all the terms have at least 1 m, therefore our GCF is 4m.

Using the GCF, our factored expression is: 4m[m^2 + 3xm - 2m - 6x]

Part B:

*We are starting off from our answer in Part A: 4m[m^2 + 3xm - 2m - 6x]

So firstly, you are factoring m^2 - 2m and 3xm - 6x separately. Make sure that what's inside the parentheses is the same for both factored parts:

4m[m(m - 2) + 3x(m - 2)]

Now you can rewrite this expression (thanks to distributive property) as 4m[(m + 3x)(m - 2)], which is your final answer.

$3,200 x 7.25% = $3,200 x .0725 = $232 interest monthly

$232 monthly x 12 annual = $2, 784
