Xiao's teacher asked him to rewrite the sum 60+90 as the product of the GCF of the two numbers and a sum. Xiao's wrote 3(20 + 30

). What mistake did Xiao make? How should he have written the sum?

His answer works ... it gives 150, which is the same as (60 + 90) ... but he didn't deliver exactly what the problem asked for.

It asked for the <u>GCF</u> to be outside the parentheses, and he put '3' there.

'3' is certainly one common factor of 60 and 90, but it's far from being the
greatest one.

The GCF of 60 and 90 is actually 30 . So the absolutely positively technically correct response to the instructions in the problem would be 30(2 + 3).

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0), (5, 1). The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates (1 1/22 , 2 1/4 ) and (−2

Answer: $k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passing through two points, then

$Slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0) and (5, 1).

Slope of MN $=\dfrac{1-0}{5-0}=\dfrac{1}{5}$

The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates $\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)$ and $\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)$ .

$A=\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\left(\dfrac{23}{22} ,\dfrac{9}{4}\right)$

$B=\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)=\left(-\dfrac{9}{4} , k\right)$ .

Slope of AB $=\dfrac{k-\frac{9}{4}}{-\frac{9}{4}-\dfrac{23}{22}}$

$=\dfrac{\frac{4k-9}{4}}{\frac{-99-46}{44}}$

$=\dfrac{4k-9}{4}\times \dfrac{44}{-145}$

$=4k-9\times \dfrac{11}{-145}$

$=\dfrac{44k-99}{-145}$

Product of slopes of two perpendicular segments is -1.

Slope of MN × Slope of AB = -1

$\dfrac{1}{5}\times \dfrac{44k-99}{-145}=-1$

$\dfrac{44k-99}{-725}=-1$

$44k-99=725$

$44k=725+99$

$k=\dfrac{824}{44}$

$k=\dfrac{206}{11}$

$k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$

Therefore, the value of k is $k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$ .

The correct answer is A) g≥5

This is because when you look at an absolute value function, the constant at the end is the y value of the vertex. Since it is an absolute value equation, we know that the values can only go up. Therefore, it must be greater than or equal to the constant at the end (5)

The value of x is? What is the value of x in this problem?

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

$x=96$ °

Step-by-step explanation:

For the upper left angle, we know that they are supplementary, so we can find the first angle of the triangle by

$180-130=50$

For the bottom right angle, we know that they are supplementary, so we can find that angle by

$180-134=46$

As a triangle has 180 degrees, we can subtract the values of the other two angles to find the final upper right angle.

$180-50-46=84$

Lastly, The upper right angle and x are supplementary so we can find x by subtracting the angle from 180

$180-84=x\\x=96$
