If you set it up in cross multiplication then you would have (x/100 = 45/54) then cross multiply so then i would look like this (54x/4,500) so from there you would divide 54 from 4,500 i hope this helps in any way oh and it should come up to be 83.3333333 which would be 83% lol

David found and factored out the GCF of the polynomial 80b4 – 32b2c3 + 48b4c. His work is below. GFC of 80, 32, and 48: 16 GCF o

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer: The correct statements are

The GCF of the coefficients is correct.

The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.

David applied the distributive property.

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF = Greatest common factor

1) GCF of coefficients : (80,32,48)

80 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5

32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

GCF of coefficients : (80,32,48) is 16.

2) GCF of variables :( $b^4,b^2,b^4$ )

$b^4$ = b × b × b × b

$b^2$ = b × b

$b^4$ =b × b × b × b

GCF of variables :( $b^4,b^2,b^4$ ) is $b^2$

3) GCF of $c^3$ and c: c is not the GCF of the polynomial. The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.

4) $80b^4-32b^2c^3+48b^4c$

$=16b^2(5b^2-2c^3+3b^2c)$

David applied the distributive property.

Brad has two lengths of copper pipe to fit together one has a length of 2 5/12 feet and the other has a length of 3 7 12 ft how

leva [86]

To find the total length of the two copper pipes, we need to add them together.

2 5/12 + 3 7/12 = 5 12/12

Since 12/12 = 1 or a whole, we can simplify this further.

5 12/12 = 6

Hope this helps!

4(4) -4 = 16-4 = 12
She was wrong because she thought that x= 6
