Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two integers could be -1 and 18.

18 + -1 = 17

Any other combination of integers that have a product of -18 would have a smaller sum.

Find the equivalent exponential expression. [(-4)^5]^3

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

$-4^{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$\left[(-4)^5\right]^3$

$\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad (a^b)^c=a^{bc}:$

$\implies (-4)^{(5 \times 3)}$

$\implies (-4)^{15}$

$\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad (-a)^n=-a^n,\:\: \textsf{ if }n \textsf{ is odd}:$

$\implies -4^{15}$

Factor out the GCF of the expression:

Leni [432]

Answer:

The GCF of 25 and 35 is 5.

Explanation:

One way to find the GCF is to find the prime factorization of each number. So,

25=52

35=5⋅7

Now, we can find all the factors 25 and 35 have in common. We see that 25 and 35 both have a 5, but not 52 because 35 only has one 5.

35 also has a 7, but that is not in the prime factorization of 25, so we do not include it. Since there is only one common factor which is 5, that is our "greatest common factor
