Factoring and Expanding Algebraic Expressions

Simplify the expression:

5(p - 6)

• 5p - 30

• 5p - 6

• p - 30

• 5p + 11

Simplify the expression:
8(4b - 5)

• 32b + 40

• 32b - 40

• 32(b - 40)

• 84b - 85

(b + 8)5

• b + 40

• 5b - 40

• 5b + 40

• 5b + 8

(x - 6)4

• 24 - 4x

• 4x - 6

• x - 24

• 4x - 24

Factor:

4x + 30

• 2(x + 15)

• 4(x + 15)

• 2(2x + 15)

• 4(x + 10)

Factor

4t - 20s

• 4(t - 5)

• 4(t+5)

Factor. 27 - 9x + 15y

• 9(3 - x + 15y)

• 3(9 - 3x + 5y)

• 2(13 - 5x + 7y)

• 3(9 - 9x + 5y)

Use factoring to take away the MOST from both numbers.

20x+30

• 2(10x+15)

• 5(4x+6)

• 10(2x+3)

• 20(1x+2)

Factor:

12x + 20

• 4(x + 5)

• 4(3x + 5)

• 3(4x + 5)

• 4(3x) + 4(5)

Factor 91a + 42b
