The first step is to distribute:
(10n-6) + (10-35n)
Second step is to combine like terms:
(25n+4)
Answer: (25n+4)
Let's take a look at each term separately.
15a^2b^2:
15 has factors 1, 3, 5, 15
a x a
b x b
-24ab
-24 has factors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
a
b
Now, we can see what each of these terms has in common. Both have a 3 in their factor lists, as well as one a and one b.
Therefore, the greatest common factor is 3ab.
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
52/145 ≈ 0.359 = 35.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 76+69 = 145 people in the room. Of them, 29+23 = 52 earn more than $50,000 per year. The probability of choosing one of those at random is 52/145 ≈ 0.35862 ≈ 35.9%.
___
For all of these probability problems, the probability of selecting an item with particular characteristics is the ratio of the number of such items to the total number of possible choices.
