Answer:

The gcf of 42 and 48 can be obtained like this:

The factors of 42 are 42, 21, 14, 7, 6, 3, 2, 1.

The factors of 48 are 48, 24, 16, 12, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1.

The common factors of 42 and 48 are 6, 3, 2, 1, intersecting the two sets above.

In the intersection factors of 42 ∩ factors of 48 the greatest element is 6.

Therefore, the greatest common factor of 42 and 48 is 6.

Taking the above into account you also know how to find all the common factors of 42 and 48, not just the greatest.

Answer:

The answer is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

5n - 13 = 42

5n = 42 + 13

5n = 55

n = 11

explanation about the solution = The angles formed by the segments measuring 42 and 5n - 13 are equal in measure which means the segments are as well.

1) x-1+5<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx-1%5C%5C%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\sqrt{x-1\\}" alt="\sqrt{x-1\\}" align

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of x in each of the following

1) x-1+5√x-1+3=0

5√x-1 = -x -2

Square both sides

25(x-1) = (-x-2)^2

25(x-1) = x^2+4x + 4

25x-25 = x^2+4x + 4

x^2 +4x + 4 - 25x + 25 = 0

x^2 - 21x + 29 = 0

x = 21±√21²-4(29)/2

x = 21±√441-116/2

x = 21±√325/2

x = 21±18.03/2

x = 21+18.03/2 and 21-18.03/2

x = 19.515 and 1.485

4) x^4-64=0

x^4 = 64

$x = \sqrt[4]{64}$

x = 2.83

Find the value of x. View picture for full problem. Please and thank you! m<2 = 6x + 12.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

All the sides are equal. So, it is an equilateral triangle. So, all angles are 60 each

6x + 12 = 60

6x = 60 - 12

6x = 48

x = 48/6

x = 8
