Astudent factors 3x2 – 12 to the following. 3(x2 – 4). which statement about 3(x2 – 4) is true? a) the expression is equivalent, and it is completely factored. b) the expression is equivalent, but it is not completely factored. c) the expression is not equivalent, but it is completely factored. d) the expression is not equivalent, and it is not completely factored.

Answer : B) The expression is equivalent, but it is not completely factored.

A student factors to the following .

is equivalent to because we factored out 3.

If we multiply 3 inside the parenthesis then we will get same expression

   can be factored further.

So  is not completely factored.

step-by-step explanation:

well if you round, things become much more simple. round 5.95 to 6, 4.25 to 4, and 1.05 to 1. now, add 6+4+1 and that would equal 11. so the items together would equal to about $11.
