![To factor the expression \( 8x - 18 \) completely, follow these steps:
1. Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms. The GCF of 8 and 18 is 2.
2. Factor out the GCF:
\[
8x - 18 = 2(4x - 9)
\]
So the completely factored form of \( 8x - 18 \) is:
\[
2(4x - 9)

Question: Factor the expression completely. 8 x − 18 8x−18
Asked by E-BOB123
To factor the expression \(8x - 18\) completely, follow these steps: 1. Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the coefficients. - The coefficients are 8 and 18. - The GCF of 8 and 18 is 2. 2. Factor out the GCF from the expression. - \(8x - 18 = 2(4x) - 2(9)\). 3. Simplify the expression by factoring out 2: - \(8x - 18 = 2(4x - 9)\). So, the completely factored form of the expression \(8x - 18\) is: \[2(4x - 9)\]
