<h2>Answer:</h2>

The GCF of the given expression is:

                          5x^2y

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The GCF ( greatest common factor ) is the greatest divisor which divides all the terms completely.

Here we have the expression as:

10x^4y^3-5x^3y^2+20x^2y

Here we see that the factors of the first term are:

10x^4y^3=2\times 5\times x\times x\times x\times x\times y\times y\times y

The factor of the second term is:

-5x^3y^2=-1\times 5\times x\times x\times x\times y\times y

and the factor of the third term is:

20x^2y=2\times 2\times 5\times x\times x\times y

i.e. the factor which is common to all the three terms are:

5\times x\times x\times y=5x^2y

Hence, the GCF is:   5x^2y

The GCF, or greatest common factor, is the greatest positive integer that evenly multiplies to make the numbers in the set. For simple numbers, GCF(12, 80, 44) is 4.

The strategy for expressions with variables is still to factor out the greatest term.

For 10x^4y^3-5x^3y^2+20x^2y, we look for the largest factor in each term.

For 10x^4y^3, the largest factors are x^4 and y^3. We'll come back to the coefficients in a minute.

For -5x^3y^2, the largest factors are x^3 and y^2. Now, looking back to the previous term and also considering the coefficients, the largest factor of the two is 5x^3y^2. You could rewrite the first term as (5x^3y^2)(2xy) and the second term as -1(5x^3y^2).

Now, we consider the last term, 20x^2y. The largest factor common to the two other terms is 5x^2y.

And that's our final answer for the GCF (answer D).

A certain stock exchange designates each stock with a one-, two-, or three-letter code, where each letter is selected from the 2
Sophie [7]

Answer: Option 'e' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of letters of the alphabet = 26

Number of letters in code :

One letter code, or two letter code, or three - letter code.

Since repetition of letters are allowed, then

if it is one letter code, the number of arrangement would be 26.

If it is two letter code, the number of arrangements would be

26\times 26\\\\=26^2\\\\=676

If it is three letter code, the number of arrangements would be

26\times 26\times 26\\\\=26^3\\\\=17576

So, Number of different stocks to uniquely designate with these codes would be

26+676+17576\\\\=18278

Hence, Option 'e' is correct.

Ainat [17]
Change=change per hour times number of hours
change per hour=-35.2
hours=1.25
change=-35.2 times 1.25
change=-44


answer is
hmm
the change is 44, but it is in a negative direction

either 44 or -44, not sure

Convert 6.32, 6, 6.215 into like decimals
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

6.320, 6.000, 6.215

Step-by-step explanation:

Three decimal points is the max number of decimal places between the three numbers (6.215). So, we need to convert the other numbers to have three decimal points as well.

write the equation of the line in slope - interact firm given the slop and the coordinates of the y-intercept. m=3/5; (0,1/6)
brilliants [131]
Y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅(x - 0)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅(x) - ³/₅(0)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅x - 0
<u>  + ¹/₆         + ¹/₆
</u>       y = <u><em /></u><em />³/₅x + ¹/₆
       y = ³/₅(0) + ¹/₆
       y = 0 + ¹/₆
       y = ¹/₆
