factor 4x-xy+8-2y

Solution

factor

4 x - x y + 8 - 2 y

Solution

- (y - 4) (x + 2)

Solution steps

4 x - x y + 8 - 2 y

= (- x y + 4 x) + (- 2 y + 8)

Factor out

- x

from

- x y + 4 x : - x (y - 4)

Factor out

- 2

from

- 2 y + 8 : - 2 (y - 4)

= - x (y - 4) - 2 (y - 4)

Factor out common term

y - 4

= (y - 4) (- x - 2)

Factor

- x - 2 : - (x + 2)

= (y - 4) (- (x + 2))

Apply rule:

a (- b) = - ab

(y - 4) (- (x + 2)) = - (y - 4) (x + 2)

= - (y - 4) (x + 2)
