The greatest common factor of 6a^2b^2c^2d and 2acd^2 is 2acd "B."

Answer:

2acd

Explanation:

Ironically it is the lowest index which is the Greatest common factor. (You cannot get more from a term than what is there.)

Make sure that a particular base is in both terms and use the lowest power for the GCF.

2acd 
There is no b factor in the second term, so it cannot be common.

The opposite happens when find the LOWEST common multiple . then it is the HIGHEST power which has to be used, because the LCM has to contain the whole of each term

Write a equation of a line perpendicular to the line below in point-slope from that passes through the point (-2,6)

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Option 1: $y-6=-4(x+2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the perpendicular line by finding the negative reciprocal of the original slope. (Negative reciprocal = flip upside down and add a negative). So we get -4 for the perpendicular slope.

Next, we know the point (-2,6) is on the line, so we can get x=-2 and y=6.

Plug this into point-slope form: $y_{1}-y_{2}=m(x_{1}=x_{2})$
