Maggie rewrote the expression 36 + 27 as two factors using the greatest common factor and the distributive property. Write the expression Maggie created.

9(4+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF of 36 and 27 is 9. Dividing 36 and 27 by 9, I used the distributive property and got the equation 9(4+3)

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
