How do you simplify: #1/4x^2y^2z+25/4x^2z-5/2x^2yz#? Algebra Systems of Equations and Inequalities Systems Using Substitution 1 Answer A. S. Adikesavan Apr 19, 2016 #(1/4)x^2(y-5)^2z# Explanation: The factors are #x^2 and z#, Also, factor #(1/4)# would leave the numerical coefficients as integers. So, the expression = #(1/4)x^2z(y^2-10y+25)=(1/4)x^2z(y-5)^2# Answer link Related questions How do you solve systems of equations using the substitution method?
