Hey there, thanks for posting your first question!

If you're asked to factor a polynomial, you need to look for the

greatest common factor between the terms that are involved.

The greatest common factor of 16a and 72 is 8 because 8

is the largest number that can divide into both 16 and 72.

The "a" doesn't qualify because it doesn't appear in every term.

So the 8 factors out.

When that happens, we are left with each term divided by that 8

inside a set of parenthses, I'll show you what I mean.

So we have 8(2a + 9).

I divided the 16a by the 8 and 72 by the 8 and if you

distribute it back you will end up with the original polynomial.

So our answer 8(2a + 9).

The answer is in the image 

The solution is in the following image

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Salesperson will make 6% of 1800

=(6/100)*1800

=108

Salesperson will make $108 in $1800 sales

Here,

tip=18%of $32

tip=(18/100)*32

=0.18*32

=$5.76

Total payment=32+5.76=$37.76
