3. Write the following equations in factored form. Remember to common factor first
(if possible).
𝑦 = 6𝑥 + 42
𝑦 = 6(𝑥 + 7)
To write the equation 𝑦 = 6𝑥 + 42 in factored form, we first need to find the common factor between the terms 6𝑥 and 42. In this case, the common factor is 6. We can rewrite the equation as:
𝑦 = 6(𝑥 + 7)
So the factored form of the equation 𝑦 = 6𝑥 + 42 is 𝑦 = 6(𝑥 + 7).
