Question
what is the completely factored form of the expression \\(16x^2 + 8x + 32\\)?
\\(4(4x^2 + 2x + 8)\\)
\\(4(12x^2 + 4x + 28)\\)
\\(8(2x^2 + x + 4)\\)
\\(8x(8x^2 + x + 24)\\)
Find the greatest common factor of the terms
$$
\text{GCF}(16x^2, 8x, 32) = 8
$$
Factor out the greatest common factor
$$
16x^2 + 8x + 32 = 8(2x^2 + x + 4)
$$
