Assuming the missing signs are pluses, that factors to (4a + 3)(a + 3)
4a2+ 25 does not factor over the real number field. In the complex numbers , it factors as (2a +5i)(2a - 5i). This is because i2 = -1, so 4a2 + 25 = 4a2 - (- 25) = 4a2 - 25(-1) = 4a2 - 25i2
2a
4(4a2 - b2) 4(2a + b)(2a - b)
The greatest common factor (GCF) of 4a and 10a is 2a. To find the GCF, we need to identify the largest factor that both 4a and 10a have in common. In this case, both 4a and 10a can be divided by 2 and a, making 2a the greatest common factor.
