Which ordered pair is a solution of the system?

1 answer:

3 0

Y = -2x - 4

x + 4y = 19
x + 4(-2x - 4) = 19
x + (-8x) - 16 = 19
-7x - 16 = 19
-7x = 35
-x = 5
x = -5

y = -2x - 4
y = -2(-5) - 4
y = 10 -4
y = 6

Solution set {-5, 6} (C)

Explain how estimating helps you check the reasonableness of your answer

Mumz [18]

It gets you closer to your answer.
Ex: 11×2-- Round 11 to 10 and then multiply and get 20. But if you get some answer like 50, you know it is wrong. But the answer is 23

Is there a faster way to find GCF of large numbers e.g 828 and 529.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

You can use prime factorization to find the GCF of a set of numbers. This often works better for large numbers, where generating lists of all factors can be time-consuming.
Here’s how to find the GCF of a set of numbers using prime factorization:
* List the prime factors of each number.
* Circle every common prime factor — that is, every prime factor that’s a factor of every number in the set.
* Multiply all the circled numbers. The result is the GCF.
For example, suppose you want to find the GCF of 28, 42, and 70. Step 1 says to list the prime factors of each number. Step 2 says to circle every prime factor that’s common to all three numbers (as shown in the following figure).
As you can see, the numbers 2 and 7 are common factors of all three numbers. Multiply these circled numbers together:
2 · 7 = 14
Thus, the GCF of 28, 42, and 70 is 14.
