we have

$3x+24$

<u>Find the greatest common factor GCF</u>

we know that

$3\\ Factors=1,3\\ \\ 24=2^{3}*3\\ Factors=1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24$

The GCF is equal to $3$

therefore

$3x+24=3*(x+8)$

<u>the answer is</u>

The number is $3$

There should be a 3 before the bracket

Solve the equation <br> -3 2/3+b = 8 1/5<br><br> B= 5 3/5<br> B= 4 4/5<br> B= 11 3/5<br> B= 11 1/5

Answer:

11 13/15

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 2/3+b = 8 1/5

Add 3 2/3 to each side

-3 2/3 + 3 2/3+b = 8 1/5+ 3 2/3

b = 8 1/5 + 3 2/3

We need to get a common denominator of 15

8 1/5 = 8 3/15

3 2/3 = 3 10/15

----------------

11 13/15

Which trigonometric ratio is correct for triangle DEF? (Hint: Use Pythagorean Theorem first) A.) Sin(D)= 24/7 B.) Tan(D)= 24/25

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Cos E= 24/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of hypotenuse: 7^2+24^2=625. 625 square root=25

Thus, DE is 25.

Sin D= 24/25, so that is false.

Tan D= 24/7, so that is false.

Cos E= 24/25, so that is true

Sin E= 7/25, so that is false.

Determine whether line segment FG is tangent to circle E.

liubo4ka [24]

The tangent meets the radius at a right angle.

We use (the converse of) the Pythagorean Theorem to check:

$26^2 + 17^2 = 965 \ne 30^2$

Not a right triangle

The price of milk increased from $3.25 to $3.75. What is the percent of change for the price of milk to the nearest tenth? Show

nikitadnepr [17]

Percent = part/whole

It wants you to find the % of change so it's 3.25 / 3.75
And that comes out to be 0.86 (with the 6 repeating)
So you move the decimal over 2 places to find the percent.
And then it's 1 - Ans

The answer is 13.33%
