Answer: 4a

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

12a²b⁶                         28a⁴                          42ab³

 ∧    ∧                           ∧  ∧                          ∧   ∧

2  6  a² b⁶                    7 4  aaaa                 7 6 a b³

   ∧     ∧                          ∧                              ∧     ∧

  2 3  aa bbbbbb          2 2                           2 3   bbb

12a²b⁶: 2 * 2 * 3 * aa * bbbbbb

28a⁴: 2 * 2 * 7 * aaaa

42ab³: 2 * 2 * 3 * 7 * a * bbb  

What do they have in common? two 2s and one a  

GCF = 2 * 2 * a = 4a

Y=6x-11 -2x-3y=-7 solve each system of equation by substitution
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

(2, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 6x - 11 → (1)

- 2x - 3y = - 7 → (2)

Substitute y = 6x - 11 into (2)

- 2x - 3(6x - 11) = - 7 ← distribute and simplify left side

- 2x - 18x + 33 = - 7

- 20x + 33 = - 7 ( subtract 33 from both sides )

- 20x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 20 )

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 6(2) - 11 = 12 - 11 = 1

Solution is (2, 1 )

Mr. Ramsey just finished bathing his kids, and now he is draining the tub. The tub contains 32 gallons of water and is draining
KIM [24]
The answer would be 11 gallons.

The tub starts with 32 gallons. Every minute it loses 3 gallons.

So after 1 minute it has lost 3 gallons. For example:
32-3= 29 Meaning that after 1 minute the tub has 29 gallons left.

Now you have to remember that the tub is draining for 7 minutes. So it is losing 3 gallons 7 times, because it loses 3 gallons each minute and there are 7 minutes.

We can use multiplication to find how many gallons the tub loses after 7 minutes. This sign “X” basically means “groups of”. We have 7 groups of 3, or
7 X 3

This is the same as saying we have 3, 7 times. Written like this:

3+3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 21

So after 7 minutes the tub has lost 21 gallons.

Now we take the original number of gallons and take away what was lost:

32-21=11

So there are 11 gallons left after 7 minutes.

Please let me know if you need any further explanation. Hope this helped.
