Full solution

Q. Is 55 a factor of 8x+408x + 40?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)yes\newline(B)no
  1. Factor out greatest common factor: Simplify the expression by factoring out the greatest common factor, which is 88. \newline8x+408x + 40 \newline= 8(x+5)8(x + 5)
  2. Check if 55 is a factor: Check if 55 is a factor of the simplified expression 8(x+5)8(x + 5). \newlineSince 55 is a factor of the term (x+5)(x + 5) inside the parentheses, 55 is a factor of the entire expression 8(x+5)8(x + 5).
