Factor 48m + 42n to identify the equivalent expressions
Ksenya-84 [330]

The equivalent expressions are 2(24m + 21n) and 3(16m + 14n) and 6(8m + 7n)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, we have to factor the given expression

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

48m + 42n

The equivalent expressions can be found by factoring out the common factors of 48 and 42

<em><u>Let us first find the factors of 48 and 42</u></em>

The factors of 42 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

The factors of 48 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48

Thus the common factors are: 1, 2, 3, 6

Let us factor out 2 from given expression

48m + 42n = 2(24m+21n)

Now factor out 3 from given expression

48m + 42n = 3(16m + 14n)

Now factor out 6 from given expression

48m+42n=6(8m + 7n)

Thus the equivalent expressions are 2(24m + 21n) and 3(16m + 14n) and 6(8m + 7n)

Walleye is a common game fish. Adult walleye have a length with a mean of 44 cm and a standard deviation of 4 cm, and the distri
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:b. 0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lengths of adult walleye fishes are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = lengths of walleye fishes.

µ = mean length

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 44 cm

σ = 4 cm

We want to find the probability or fraction of fishes that are greater than 41 cm in length. It is expressed as

P(x > 41) = 1 - P(x ≤ 41)

For x = 41,

z = (41 - 44)/4 = - 0.75

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.22
