Complete Question:
Mr. Phen's monthly income can be represented by the expression 25 x + 120 where x is the number of hours worked. Factor the expression 25 x + 120.
Answer:
The factored expression for 25 x + 120 is 5(5 x+120).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
25 x + 120
Write the prime factorisation for the given equation ,
[tex]25 x=5 \times 5 \times x[/tex]
[tex]120=40 \times 3=4 \times 10 \times 3=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 \times 3[/tex]
Mark the common factors from both, so that the G.C.F for that given as
The G.C.F of 25 x and 120 is 5
Therefore, the factored expression for 25 x + 120 is 5(5 x+120).
