<span>When we have two or more given integer, we can consider  the largest factor that both numbers have in common. This is called the GCF or the </span><span>Greatest Common Factor.  GCF helps </span>with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers.

For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).

<span>Remember that factors are the numbers we multiply together to get another number.</span>

The distributive property is a useful way to look at problems in a new way. The distributive property helps us to rewrite expressions and still get the same answer.

<span>GCF is important when factoring a sum of two numbers because it’s easily to know value by the both numbers.</span>

Which equation shows the opposite of the opposite of 5? SHOW ALL WORK!
lions [1.4K]
The opposite of something means to change this signed that is with the number.

If it is a positive number, the opposite would be negative.

So in this example, if it's the opposite of positive 5, that is -5. The opposite of -5 would be positive 5.

The equation that shows this correctly would be D.

Question 5 of 8 -
Ilya [14]

Answer:

8 x 2.48 = 19.84

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the product for the expression 8 x 2.48.

First no is 8 and second no is 2.48

Product means to multiply.

We can write 2.48 as \dfrac{248}{100}

i.e.

8\times \dfrac{248}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{1984}{100}

Now, apply decimal after 9. So,

8 x 2.48 = 19.84

Hence, the correct option is (b).

So set both equations equal to each other then solve out of x and plug it back into the x equation to find the angles so start with x+5=2x+10 then subtract x from 2x and you will have 1x then subtract 10 from 5 leaving you with negative 5 then x equals negative 5 and then plug it back into the equation so for example 2 times negative 5 equals negative 10 plus positive 10 equals 0 so therefore x equals 0
