Factor the given expression using the GCF monomial please! I actually need to understand this so please show your work as well, thank you!

9a^4b^10 ( 4 - 9a^12b^20)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor of the two terms is 9a^4b^10

You can now remove the greatest common factor outside the brackets.

Inside the brackets, you place the value obtained by dividing 36a^4b^10- 81a^16b^20 by 9a^4b^10

That is = 4 - 9a^12b^20

Please note that the laws of indices i used for the above division is: n^a divided by n^b = n^(a-b)

Now, the factorised answer for your question =  9a^4b^10 ( 4 - 9a^12b^20)

Hope thos helps  

answer: ask

step-by-step explanation:

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
