By definition, if two lines share the same gradient, they are said to be parallel. So, we know for this equation, it must have a gradient of 1/2.

Now, since the point (-6, 4) passes through the line, we know it must satisfy the equation. Since we have a gradient/slope and a point, we can use the point-gradient form:

y - y_1 = \frac{1}{2}(x - x_1), where (x_1, y_1) represents the points being passed through.

y - 4 = \frac{1}{2}(x + 6)
2y - 8 = x + 6
2y = x + 14
y = \frac{1}{2}x + 7

Find the greatest common factor of 15x^2y^3 and -18x^3yz <br> The Answer has to be like _x_y_
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The greatest common factor of this would be 3x^2y

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, first find the greatest common factor of the coefficients. Since 3 goes in evenly to both 15 and -18, then we know that it is a common factor.

From there we need to find the number of x's. Since the first term only has 2 x's and the second has 3, we take the lowest number. (x^2)

And since the first term has 3 y's and the second has just 1, we take the lowest number (y).

OleMash [197]

Answer:

2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the 2 1/2 to 2 2/4

now subtract 1/4 from 2 2/4 leaving 2 1/4

Now subtract 1 3/4 from 2 1/4 in which you get 2/4

which is the answer :)
