Transcript text: Factor Completely
\[
9 x^{2}+90 x
\]
a. $9 x(x+10)$
b. $9\left(x^{2}+10\right)$
c. $(9 x+10)(x+7)$
d. $(x+10)(9 x+7)$
Solution
Solution Steps
To factor the given expression \(9x^2 + 90x\) completely, we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms. The GCF of \(9x^2\) and \(90x\) is \(9x\). We can then factor out \(9x\) from each term.
Solution Approach
Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms in the expression.
Factor out the GCF from the expression.
Step 1: Identify the Expression
We start with the expression:
\[
9x^2 + 90x
\]
Step 2: Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)
The GCF of the terms \(9x^2\) and \(90x\) is \(9x\).
Step 3: Factor Out the GCF
We factor out \(9x\) from the expression:
\[
9x^2 + 90x = 9x(x + 10)
\]
Final Answer
The completely factored form of the expression is:
\[
\boxed{9x(x + 10)}
\]
