The greatest common factor (GCF) is determined by finding the greatest factor that would simplify all the terms of the equation the most.

For the equation -2x³ - 4x² + 4x
The common factor for the coefficients -2, -4 and 4 is -2, since all of them are divisible by -2.
The common factor for the variables x³, x² and x is x, since all of them are divisible by x.

Then, the GCF would be -2x. We use this to simplify the equation:

-2x(x² + 2x -2)

If an image of a triangle is congruent to the pre-image, what is the scale factor of the dilation?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

The scale factor of the dilation is 1 because the image and pre-image share the SAME everything (lengths, area, etc.). So if you multiply one of the image’s length by any number other than one, the pre-image will change.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must have heard about Arithmetic Progressions (AP)

Arithmetic progressions are a series of numbers such that every successive number is the sum of a constant number and the previous number.

Our very own counting numbers form AP

For example :-

2 = 1 + 1
