What is the greatest common factor of the following monomials: 12g^5h^4 g^5h^2
muminat

Answer:

g^5h^2

Step-by-step explanation:

12g^5h^4, g^5h^2

This is one way of doing it. Break down every number and every variable into a product of the simplest factors. Then see how many of each factor appear in both monomials.

12g^5h^4 = 2 * 2 * 3 * g * g * g * g * g * h * h * h * h

g^5h^2 = g * g * g * g * g * h * h

So far you see every single prime factor of each monomial.

Now I will mark the ones that are present in both. Those are the common factors.

12g^5h^4 = 2 * 2 * 3 * g * g * g * g * g * h * h * h * h

g^5h^2 = g * g * g * g * g * h * h

The greatest common factor is the product of all the factors that appear in both monomials.

GCF = g * g * g * g * g * h * h = g^5h^2

Why is adding 3/9 and 6/9 different from multiplying the two fractions?
xenn [34]
First off 3/9 and 6/9 are already common denominators. In some fractions you would need to find the least common denominator like in a problem like 1/2 + 4/5. Also 3/9 plus 6/9 results in 9/9 and 9/9 equals 1. Most fractions adding it subtracting results in a pan answer as a fraction but in this case it’s a whole number.

Find x.<br> 8x + 11<br> 12x - 1
ELEN [110]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If T is the midpoint, that means segments ST and TU are congruent.

Step 1: Set up expression

8x + 11 = 12x - 1

Step 2: Solve

11 = 4x - 1

12 = 4x

x = 3

Recent census data indicated that 14.2% of adults between the ages of 25 and 34 live with their parents. A random sample of 125
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The  probability is  P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  0.5354  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  proportion that live with their parents is  \r p  =  0.142

   The  sample  size is n =  125

   

Given that there are two possible outcomes and that this outcomes are independent of each other then we can say the Recent census data follows a Binomial distribution

  i.e  

       X   \  \~ \ B( \mu ,  \sigma )

Now the mean is evaluated as

      \mu  =  n *  \r p

      \mu  =  125 *  0.142

      \mu  =  17.75

Generally the proportion that are not staying with parents is  

      \r  q  =  1 -  \r  p

= >    \r  q  =  0.858

The standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

     \sigma  =  \sqrt{n * \r p  *  \r q }

     \sigma  =  \sqrt{ 125 *  0.142 * 0.858  }

    \sigma  = 3.90

Given the n is large  then we can use normal approximation to evaluate the probability as follows  

     P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  P( \frac{ 14 -  17.75}{3.90}

Now applying continuity correction

      P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  P( \frac{ 13.5 -  17.75}{3.90}  < \frac{  X  - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ 19.5 -  17.75}{3.90}   )

Generally  

    \frac{  X  - \mu }{\sigma }  =  Z  ( The  \ standardized \ value  \  of  X )

    P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  P( \frac{ 13.5 -  17.75}{3.90}  < Z< \frac{ 19.5 -  17.75}{3.90}   )

     P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  P( -1.0897   < Z<  0.449 }   )

    P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =   P( Z<  0.449   ) - P(Z  <   -1.0897)

So  for the z -  table  

         P( Z<  0.449   ) =  0.67328

         P(Z  <   -1.0897)  = 0.13792

 P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =   0.67328 -  0.13792    

  P(14 <  X  <  20 ) =  0.5354
