Jill has just moved to a new town and wants to share plates of baked goods with her neighbors. She has 20 cookies and 12 brownies to share, and wants to split them equally among the plates with no food left over. What is the greatest number of plates she can make to share?

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest number of plates Jill can split the 20 cookies and 12 brownies into can be determined by calculating the highest common factor and 20 and 12

Factors of 12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Factors of 20 = 1, 2,4, 5, 10, 20

the correct answer option is (2x-3)(2x+3).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to factorize it:

we are to find such factors that when multiplied they give a result of 36 (9 x 4 = 36) and when added they give a result of 0.

the two such factors of 36 are negative six and postive six.

factorizing the given expression to get:

therefore, the correct factorization of is (2x-3)(2x+3).

the answer to this would be 5x^3-6x^2-24 over 3x^2
