A linear expression can be expanded and factorized.
The correct factors are:
- [tex]\mathbf{a)\ 25x + 5xy}[/tex]
- [tex]\mathbf{c)\ 9xyz + 3xy}[/tex]
- [tex]\mathbf{5xz - 18xyz = xz(5 - 18y)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{a)\ 25x + 5xy}[/tex]
Factor out 5x
[tex]\mathbf{25x + 5xy = 5x(5 + y)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{b)\ 8xz - 12xy}[/tex]
Factor out -4x
[tex]\mathbf{8xz - 12xy = -4x(-2z + 3y)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{c)\ 9xyz + 3xy}[/tex]
Factor out 3xy
[tex]\mathbf{9xyz + 3xy = 3xy(3z + 1)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{d)\ 5xz - 18xyz}[/tex]
Factor out xz
[tex]\mathbf{5xz - 18xyz = xz(5 - 18y)}[/tex]
Hence, the correct factors are: (a), (c) and (d)
