Consider the expression 63 + 81.
how can you use the distributive property and the gcf to find an equivalent expression? explain how you can check your answer.

The GCF of 63 and 81 is 9, so you can use that as the factor outside of the parentheses. Divide both numbers by 9 and write the sum as 9(7 + 9). You can check that the sum 63 + 81 is the same as the product 9(7 +9).

the correct answer option is (2x-3)(2x+3).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to factorize it:

we are to find such factors that when multiplied they give a result of 36 (9 x 4 = 36) and when added they give a result of 0.

the two such factors of 36 are negative six and postive six.

factorizing the given expression to get:

therefore, the correct factorization of is (2x-3)(2x+3).
