Lucas and Erick are factoring the polynomial 12x3 – 6x2 + 8x – 4. Lucas groups the polynomial (12x3 + 8x) + (–6x2 – 4) to factor. Erick groups the polynomial (12x3 – 6x2) + (8x – 4) to factor. Who correctly grouped the terms to factor?

Factor completely. 4p^2 + 36p + 81 express the answer in the form (ap + b)^2

Nick has box brads. he uses 4 brads for the first project. nick let’s b represent the original number of brads and finds that for the second project, the number of brads he uses is 8 more than half the difference of b and 4. write an expression to represent the number of brads he uses for the second project.
