Question 1:
73 is a prime number. It can only be divided by 1 and by itself. 

The GCF of the three numbers:
 54                               36                            73
1×54                           1×36                          1×73
2×27                          2×18
3×18                           3×12
6×9                            4×9
                                   6×6

GCF of 54, 36 and 73  is 1

GCF of 54 and 36 is 18

If we divide 54 apples into 18 baskets, we have 3 apples in each basket
If we divide 36 oranges into 18 baskets, we have 2 oranges in each basket
If we divide 73 bananas into 18 baskets, we have 4 bananas in each basket + one banana left over.

So the greatest number of identical fruit baskets we can make with the least amount of fruit left over is 18 baskets

Consider the quadratic equation x2 − 6x = 16.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

  1. C) (x − 3)2 = 25
  2. C) Factor out 4 from 4x2 + 40x.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation will "complete the square." That square is 9, so the result on the right is 16+9 = 25. Only selection C matches.

___

2. To complete the square, you want to be able to put the quadratic into the form a(x -h)^2 = -k. For the purpose, it is most convenient to first factor "a" from the given quadratic. Then you can determine "-h" to be half the x-coefficient inside the parentheses.

Here, that looks like ...

  4(x² +10x) = 80 . . . . . . . . . . step 1: factor out 4

  4(x² +10x +25) = 180 . . . . . add 25 inside parentheses and the same number (4·25) on the right side of the equation

  4(x +5)² = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square

I believe the answer is $48 because 6 * 2 is 12 and 12 * 2 is 24 and 24 * 2 is 48, thus 48$. Please feel free to check my work, though.
