Write 45/72 in the simplest form

Hi! 

In my opinion, the easiest way to solve a problem like this is to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and then divide both numbers by the GCF. 

So first we need to find the factors of 45 and 72 and find the factor that has the most value that the two numbers both have. 

45: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45

72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72

It looks like the GCF is 9. Now we have to divide 45 and 72 by 9. 

45 ÷ 9 = 5

72 ÷ 9 = 8

So the correct answer should be:

\frac{45}{72} =  \frac{5}{8}

Hope this helps :)

Between x=2 and x=3, which function has a greater average rate of change than f(x)=2^x has?
maxonik [38]

Answer: f(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the formula for the rate of change by taking the derivative of 2^x. Let f(x) equal some hypothetical y-value, then take the natural log of both sides.

y=2^x\\\ln(y)=x \ln(2)

Implicitly differentiate the left side and take the derivative of the right side

\frac{y'}{y} =\ln(2)

Multiply both sides by 'y' which was defined as 2^x

y'=\ln(2)*2^x

Plug in x = 2 and x = 3 to see which slope is larger

y'=\ln(2)*2^2=4\ln(2)\\y'=\ln(2)*2^3=8\ln(2)
