Question

Mara carried water bottles to the field to share with her team at halftime. The water bottles weighed a total of 60x2 + 48x + 24 ounces. Which factorization could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle? 6(10x2 + 8x + 2) 12(5x2 + 4x + 2) 6x(10x2 + 8x + 2) 12x(5x2 + 4x + 2)

Answer 1

12(5x^2+4x+2) is correct answer because divide everything by 12 and that is factorization that you get. It is the furthest simplified for of this factorization.

Answer 2

The factorization could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle is 12.

Given that,

The water bottles weighed a total of  $=60x^{2} +48x+24$ ounces.

We have to find,

The factorization could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle.

According to the question,

The water bottles weighed a total of

$=60x^{2} +48x+24$

Taking 12 as the highest common factor gives:

$= 12 (5x^{2} + 4x+2)$

Where 12 is the number of bottles and $(5x^{2} + 4x+2)$ is the weight of each one.

Hence , The factorization could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle is 12.
