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>

(Please help ASAP 16 points! Thanks in advance!) solve -2a - 5 &gt; 3
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

a<-4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you have to isolate a. This means you will have to add 5 to both sides. This will make the equation -2a>8. Divide both sides by 2 to get -a>4. Divide each side by -1 to get a>-4. Because you have to flip the sign when you divide by a negative number, you have to change it into a<-4.

ad-work [718]

Hey!


Your answers are:

- 4 less than a number

- A number decreased by 4


Let k represent "a number". "k" is a variable, and variables are unknown.


-4 is subtracting 4. That means you're subtracting 4 from a number. -4 also means that the number is decreasing by 4. Therefore, those 2 are your answers.
