It’s the hypotenuse, so you would do a^2 + b^2 = c^2, let a equal 30 feet and let b equal 42 feet. hope this helps

What is the Greatest common factor of 18x^2 and 36x

adoni [48]

For this case we have that by definition, the Greatest Common Factor or GFC of two or more numbers, is the largest number that divides them without leaving residue.

So, we have to:

We look for the factors of 18 and 36:

18: 1,2,3,6,9,18

36: 1, 2,3,4, 6,9,18 ...

It is observed that the GFC of both numbers is 18.

Then, the GFC of $18x ^ 2$ and $36x$ is:

18x

Answer:

18x

2x+3=9 what is the answer

xxMikexx [17]

Answer : x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

2x+3=9

We want to find the variable x, so we have to make it alone. To do so, first subtract 3 from both sides of the equation:

2x+3 − 3=9 − 3

2x=6

Now divide both sides by 2:

2x2=62

So the final answer is:

x=3
