Factor

(m + 4) (a – 5) + (m + 4) (a + 3)
I cut it down to 2 possibilities.

(m + 4) (2a – 2)

(m + 4) (a2 – 2) Think it's this one

(m +4)(a - 5 + a +3) = (m + 4)(2a -2)

= 2(m + 4)(a - 1)

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.

So then the answer would be

(m + 4) (2a – 2) OR

(m + 4) (a2 – 2)

my money is on PsyDAG

Ok so the answer is

(m + 4) (2a – 2)

OR

(m + 4) (a2 – 2)

You are still not factoring out the 2 in the second part of the formula. You have not factored it completely. See my previous answer.

I saw the answer, but my choices are as follows: Thank you for your help but which one would it be? the thrid one or forth? I know the 1st two are no goes. You opinion please? Thanks!



(m + 4) (a – 8)
(m + 4) (a + 8)
(m + 4) (2a – 2)
(m + 4) (a2 – 2)

Look at the second step of my first answer. However, they did not factor it completely.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
