First number --- (2a-1)
middle number ---- (2a)
third number -----(2a+1)
2a-1+2a+2a+1=250
6a=250
a=250/6= 125/3
2a=2*(125/3)= 250/3 ---- is not a whole number that is contradicts to what is given, so sum cannot be 250
so
Answer:
1. 15x^7y^2 + 4x^3 => x^3(15x^4y^2 + 4)
2. 15x^7y^2 + 3x => 3x(5x^6y^2 + 1)
3. 15x^7y^2 + 6xy => 3xy(5x^6y + 2)
4. 15x^7 + 10y^2 => 5(3x^7 + 2y^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the answer to the question, first let us factorise each expression. This is illustrated below:
1. 15x^7y^2 + 4x^3
Common factor is x^3, therefore the expression is written as:
x^3(15x^4y^2 + 4)
2. 15x^7y^2 + 3x
Common factor is 3x, therefore the expression is written as:
3x(5x^6y^2 + 1)
3. 15x^7y^2 + 6xy
Common factor is 3xy, therefore the expression is written as:
3xy(5x^6y + 2)
4. 15x^7 + 10y^2
Common factor is 5, therefore the expression can be written as:
5(3x^7 + 2y^2)
The greatest common factor of 27, 45, and 63 is 9
Answer:
x = -7/5
<em>or x = -1.4</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
2/10 - 4/5 = -3/5
-3/5 * 7 = -21/5
-21/5 ÷ 3 = -7/5
