Faelyn grouped the terms and factored the GCF out of the groups of the polynomial 6x4 – 8x2 + 3x2 + 4. Her work is shown. Step 1: (6x4 – 8x2) + (3x2 + 4)

Step 2: 2x2(3x2 – 4) + 1(3x2 + 4)

Faelyn noticed that she does not have a common factor. Which accurately describes what Faelyn should do next?

Faelyn should realize that her work shows that the polynomial is prime.
Faelyn should go back and regroup the terms in Step 1 as (6x4 + 3x2) – (8x2 + 4).
In Step 2, Faelyn should factor only 2x out of the first expression.
Faelyn should factor out a negative from one of the groups so the binomials will be the same.

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

stops on an even number.

hi! i think the answer is 1/2 : )
