The expression 16y² + 48y in factored form is 16y(y+4) and the GCF of 16 and 48 is 16.

Given that A water company drills 2 wells to provide additional water for a small community. The cost in dollars to drill and service the wells for y years is represented by the expression 16y² + 48y and asked to factorize the equation

Factorization:

A number or other mathematical object is factored (or factorised, see variants in English spelling) or factored by a number of factors, often smaller or simpler things of the same sort.

⇒16y² + 48y=16y(y+4)

G.C.F:

The greatest common factor, which is the product of two or more numbers, is the biggest number (GCF). A natural number is created by dividing them by the biggest number (factor). There are a few factors that both share once all the number's components have been identified. The greatest common factor is the one with the largest number among the common factors. The highest common factor is another name for the GCF (HCF)

The highest common factor of 16 and 48 is 16

Therefore, G.C.F of 16 and 48 is 16

Therefore,The expression 16y² + 48y in factored form is 16y(y+4) and the GCF of 16 and 48 is 16.

Keith_Richards [23]

If I read correctly, 2456 pennies needs to be divided simply by 3 then rounded to the nearest hundredth. So you would do 2456/3 3 goes into 24 how many times? Then 3 goes into 5 how many times, then continue the pattern. Once you've gotten a decimal to the thousandth, round the number to the hundredth and there you go

What is the equation for

WARRIOR [948]

The equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is y = –4x – 16.

Solution:

The equation of a line given is y = 0.25x – 7

Slope of the given line( $m_1$ ) = 0.25

Let $m_2$ be the slope of the perpendicular line.

Passes through the point (–6, 8).

If two lines are perpendicular then the product of the slopes equal to –1.

$\Rightarrow m_1 \cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow 0.25\cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{-1}{0.25}$

$\Rightarrow m_2=-4$

Point-slope intercept formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$x_1=-6, y_1=8$ and $m=-4$

Substitute these in the formula, we get

$y-8=-4(x-(-6))$

$y-8=-4(x+6)$

$y-8=-4x-24$

Add 8 on both sides of the equation.

$y-8+8=-4x-24+8$

$y=-4x-16$

Hence the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is

y = –4x – 16

Is 9x=270 addition property of equality or symmetric property?

Ede4ka [16]

This is the symmetric property, for you divide 9 to both sides to get x, instead of adding (addition property of equality)

So symmetric property should be your answer
Hope this helps
