Answer:
By using Carl Gauss's clever formula, (n / 2)(first number + last number) = sum, where n is the number of integers, we learned how to add consecutive numbers quickly. We now know that the sum of the pairs in consecutive numbers starting with the first and last numbers is equal.
Answer: (C) divide by 1
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
when dividing by x - 1, set the expression equal to zero to find the zero. That is actually what you are dividing by:
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
so the number outside of the synthetic division symbol is 1.
Substitute the value of x in equation 2. Then you'll get y=3. Then again substitute the value of y in x=1+y, you'll get x=4
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
We can list out each of the numbers' prime factors first before deciding their greatest common factor.
16: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
48: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
As you can see the bolded parts, these are the common factors of the two numbers. To find the greatest common factors, we just have to multiply all their common factors together.
Greatest common factor of 16 & 48: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
