Let's factor the top and the bottom.
Top factors 4x + 20 = 4(x + 5)
Bottom x^2 + 2x - 15 = (x + 5)(x - 3)
The gcf is the largest value that will go into both the top and the bottom. In our problem the ONLY thing that will go into top and bottom is x + 5 so that is your GCF. (c)
Answer:
the answer is true
Step-by-step explanation:
(I know there isnt any real problem here to solve, but heres a tip on how to solve greatest to least with decimal problems)
1. Just because a number looks big, doesn't mean it is big
Example: 1.00000000000001 < 1.1
just look at the numbers ^ and dont just hastily read it over assuming that 1.1 is smaller because it "has less digits"
2. Negative numbers are... opposite. and they are less than positive numbers
-3.4 > -4.1
Why is this? Well, if you look on a line, with the point 0 in the middle, you can see that -3.4 is not as far away from 0 as -4.1 is. So the idea is to apply opposite logic for negative numbers
I hope these tips helped!! :D
Answer:
A = 58
B =:25
Step-by-step explanation:
C = A + B
83 = 9x + 4 + 4x + 1
83 = 13x + 5
13x = 78
x = 78/13
x = 6
A = 9x + 4 = 9 x 6 + 4 = 58
B = 4x + 1 = 4 x 6 + 1 = 25
Since the lines a and b are parallel, <4 and <8 are of the same measure. To find <8, we can simply subtract the measure of <7 from 180 degrees.
<4 = <8 = 180 - <7 = 180- 114 = 66 degrees
