Answer:GCF=17

To find the greatest common factor, or GCF, of the numbers, we first need to list the prime factors of both 85 and 51

52=3*17

85=5*17

17 is the sole common factor that these two numbers have in common, therefore 17 is the GCF.

To simplify the ratio, simply divide both numbers by 17.

85:51 becomes 5:3

In a bolt factory, machines 1,2, and 3 respectively produce 20%, 30% and 50% of the total output. of their respective outputs 5%
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a. 1/10 or 10%

b. 1/2 or 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.

If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.

15 Points!<br> Find the range of the functions:<br><br> f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 1<br><br> f(x) = 7x - 11
MakcuM [25]

In both cases you may well benefit from graphing the functions.

Do you recognize f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 1 as a quadratic function, whose graph is that of a parabola that opens up? By comparing this to y = a(x-h)^2 + k, we see that a=1, h= -1 and k = -1. The vertex is at (h,k), which here is the point (-1, -1). This is the minimum value of the function. Thus, the range of this function is [-1, infinity).


Now for the function f(x) = 7x - 11: This is a linear function whose graph is (surprise!) a straight line. When x increases, y increases, without limits to either. Similarly, when x decreases, y decreases.

Thus the range includes all real numbers: (-infinity, infinity).
