By the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, all number can be expressed as a product of prime numbers.

So naturally, lets divide 120 by an easy prime number.
We know that 120 is even, so lets try 2 120/2 = 60 lets keep dividing it by two until it becomes odd or prime 60/2 = 30 30/2 = 15 now lets see, what are some factors of 15?

Well the obvious ones are 3 and 5, both of which are prime. So now we can just count up how many times we divided it by 2
 
120/2 = 60 60/2 = 30 30/2 = 15 and 15 is just 3 x 5, so: <span>
120=(<span>23</span>)×(3)×(5)</span>
or <span><span>
120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5</span></span>

What slope would a line have to be perpendicular to a line with a slope of 1/4 ?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

A line perpendicular to another has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line. The negative reciprocal of the original line is –2, and is thus the slope of its perpendicular line.

PLEASE HELP the formula m=12,000+12,000rt/12t gives keri's monthly loan payment where t is the annual interest rate and t is the
tatiyna

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula m = (12,000 + 12,000rt)/12t gives Keri's monthly loan payment, where r is the annual interest rate and t is the length of the loan, in years. Keri decides that she can afford, at most, a $275 monthly car payment. Give an example of an interest rate greater than 0% and a loan length that would result in a car payment Keri could afford. Provide support for your answer.

Answer: Let us assume an annual interest rate (r) = 10% = 0.1. The maximum monthly payment (m) Keri can afford is $275. i.e. m ≤ $275. Using the monthly loan payment formula, we can calculate a loan length that would result in a car payment Keri could afford.

m=\frac{12000+12000rt}{12t}\\ but\ m\leq275, \ and \ r=10\%=0.1\\275= \frac{12000+12000(0.1)t}{12t}\\275= \frac{12000}{12t} +\frac{12000(0.1)}{12t}\\275= \frac{1000}{t} + 100\\275-100= \frac{1000}{t} \\175= \frac{1000}{t} \\175t = 1000\\t= \frac{1000}{175}\\ t=5.72\ years

The loan must be at least for 5.72 years for an annual interest rate (r) of 10%
