How do you do some of these type of problems? It's my homework and I didn't really understand in class.
a^3-4a^2-a+4 or cx+cy+bx+by it's algebra 1 or algebra 2, btw. |

i don't mean to sound liek a bitch but i have no clue what you guys are talking about ;x
we haven't learned that yet, but it's probably right. i can remember some of what she taught us, and it was called grouping or something? a^3-4a^2-a+4 and then she did something like (a^3-4a^s)(-a+4) or something. now i forget what to do after that. |
