Answer 1

Answer:

12 (5x² + 4x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

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?

60x² + 48x + 24

= 12 (5x² + 4x + 2)

for 5x² + 4x + 2   D < 0 show real factors are not possible

12  * (5x² + 4x + 2) represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle

if we say 12 Represent the number of water bottles then 5x² + 4x + 2 represents weight of each water bottle

if we say 12 Represent the weight of each water bottle then 5x² + 4x + 2 represents the number of water bottles
