Xxxxcccccccccccccccc

Answer 1

On factorizing 2x- xy +4y - 8 we will get (2 -y) and (x - 4)

Given:

2x- xy +4y -8  

To find:

Factorise 2x- xy +4y -8  

Solution:

Complete question:

Factorize 2x- xy +4y -8 by grouping terms.

Given expression 2x- xy +4y -8    

We can factorize given expression by grouping or taking common as given below

=> 2x- xy +4y -8    

Take x common from terms 2x and xy  

=>  x(2- y) +4y -8    

Take - 4 as common from terms 4y and -8

=>   x(2- y) - 4 (- y + 2)

=>  x(2- y) - 4 (2 - y)

Now take (2 - y) as common  

=>  (2 -y) (x - 4)

Therefore,

On factorizing 2x- xy +4y - 8 we will get (2 -y) and (x - 4)
