Explain how the GCF is used to factor an expression?

Mathematics
1 answer:
scoundrel [369]3 years ago
6 0

When factoring, it's easier to "pick out" the GCF first because it makes it simpler to factor even further. Otherwise, you will be troubled with lots of numbers and variables, so it will just get confusing.

There are 13 bagels in a baker's dozen. Hillary,Mark, and Tam share the bagels equally. Will each friend get more than or fewer
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Each friend will get more than 4 whole bagels.

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, although the question asks for 13 bagels divided between 3 friends, let's use a number that results in a whole number when divided by 3, but is close to 13.

This number can be 12.

12 divided by 3 is 4, so each friend gets 4 bagels if there are a total of 12 bagels.

However, there are more than 12 bagels so we know that each of the the 3 friends will get more than 4 bagels each.

A sales person in a stereo store is given a choice of two different compensation plans. One plan offers a weekly salary of $250
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

<em>The salesperson needs to sell 10 stereos to make the same money on both plans</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll analyze both choices for the compensation plans of a salesperson.

One plan offers a fixed weekly salary of $250 plus a $25 commission for each stereo sold. The function than models this plan is:

P1=250+25x

Where x is the number of stereos sold.

The other plan offers no fixed salary but a $50 commission on each stereo sold. The function of this plan is:

P2=50x

To find the equilibrium point for both plans, we make P1=P2:

250+25x=50x

Simplifying:

25x=250

Solving:

x = 250 / 25 = 10

The salesperson needs to sell 10 stereos to make the same money on both plans
