Common means similar/alike in this case. to have the highest common factor, you need it to be common with the two numbers. both numbers are negative, so the highest common factor is also negative.

remember, you aren't multiplying/dividing to get a product or quotient; you'r simply looking for a number.

i hope my explanation helped! x

How do I solve for y?
Allisa [31]

First we know that,

3x+15=5x-65 because of vertical angle thr.

y=y because of reflex property

there are 360 degrees in a circle so..

3x+15+5x-65+2y=360

3x+15=5x-65

x=40

so each 2 of the angles are...(40*3+15)=135

Then your new equation is

135+135+2y=360

2y=90

<u>y=45</u>

Hope this helps :)

A post office charges 50k for a telegram of 15 words or less it charges an extra 3k for every word above 15 words find the cost
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

95k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

15 words or less = 50k

Every word above 15 = additional 3k

The cost of 30 words :

First 15 words = 50 k

Number of additional words = (30 - 15) = 15 words

Cost of every additional word = 3 k

Cost of 15 additional word = 15 * 3 = 45k

Total cost of 30 words :

50k + 45k = 95k

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

A= L²

L = 7.07

x²= L²+ L²

x²= 7.07² + 7.07²

x² = 100 ( do opposite operation to make x the subject)
