Georgette created a factor tree and wrote the prime factorization of 72 shown here. A factor tree of 72. 72 branches to 8 and 9. 8 branches to 2 and 4. 4 branches to 2 and 2. 72 = 23 × 9 What is Georgette’s error? A. Georgette should have started the factor tree with 2 × 36. B. Georgette did not complete the factorization; 9 is a composite number. C. Georgette should have expressed 4 as 4 x 1, not 2 x 2. D. Georgette should have expressed 8 as 4 × 4, not 2 × 4.

Georgette did not complete the factorization; 9 is a composite number.

Step-by-step explanation:

9 can be broken down to 3x3

So it the prime factorization of 72 should be 2x2x2x3x3

think about the doctor who treated the major and the speaker in the short story "in another country." put yourself in the shoes of the doctor, and based on what you read in the story, write what you think his thoughts about the major and the speaker would be. use the following vocabulary in your response and change the form of these words as needed: detached resign withered
