Factor the polynomial using the greatest common binomial factor.
-$$x y ( x - 4 ) + ( x - 4 )$$
A) $\left( x ^ { 2 } y - 4 x y \right) + ( x - 4 )$
B) $( x - 4 ) ( x y + 1 )$
C) $x y ( x - 4 )$
D) $( x - 4 ) ( x y - 1 )$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The greatest common binomial factor in both terms is $(x - 4)$. Factoring it out, we get $(x - 4)(xy + 1)$.

Factor the Polynomial Using the Greatest Common Binomial Factor xy(x−4)+(x−4)x y ( x - 4 ) + ( x - 4 )xy(x−4)+(x−4)
