A GCF(or greates common factor) is exactly that the greates number taht can be used to divide both numbers. In this case 32 and -48 is 8 how do I know that because 8 times 4 is 32 and 8 times 6 is 48, now that you know that, I will leave unly the numbers that I used to multiply by 8 this would be 4 and 6, now that doesn't mean 8 is your GCF you have to check if your numbers can be simplified even more with another number well in this case yes 4 and 6 also share a common number ans this one is 2 4 divide by 2 is 2 and 6 divide by 2 is 3 now we are left with these numbers 2 and -3, now how do I know what was my GCF well this part is easy, just multiply the first number you used to divide times the second
E.J. in this case you would multiply 8 times 2 and this gives you 16... Now how do you know if this GCF is correct well multiply 16 times (2-3) usinf distributive property, 16 times 2 is 32 so we are good till now, and 16 times 3 is in fact -48 s our GCF is correct!!! this means 16(2-3) is our final answer
Hope this helps
You need to post the diagram that goes to this question. But here's a hint so you can do this on your own co planar means that the points are in the same plane and collinear means that the points are on the same line.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 3x+4/2 = 9.5
3x + 4/2 = 9.5........criss cross
3x+4= 9.5×2
3x = 19-4
3x = 15
x=5 ..........divide both sides by 3
B. 7+ 2x/3= 5.......criss cross
7+2x = 5 × 3
7 + 2x = 15
2x = 15-7
2x = 8......divide both sides by 2
x = 4
3000 for 9 months...plus the interest of 185.63
(3000 + 185.63) / 9 = 3185.63 / 9 = 353.96 per month (and thats rounded)
