Answer:
8 * (7 + 4)
See process below
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by writing each number in PRIME factor form:
56 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 7
32 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2
Notice that the factors that are common to BOTH numbers are 2 * 2 * 2 (the product of three factors of 2).Therefore we see that the greatest common factor for the given numbers is : 2 * 2 * 2 = 8
Using this, we can write the two numbers as the product of this common factor (8) times the factors that are left on each:
56 = 8 * 7
32 = 8 * 2 * 2 = 8 * 4
We can then use distributive property to "extract" that common factor (8) from the given addition as shown below:
56 + 32
8 * 7 + 8 * 4
8 * (7 + 4)
8 * (11)

Answer:
<h2>5</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x) = ax² +bx, we are to determine the value of b-a. Before we determine the vwlue of b-a, we need to first calculate for the value of a and b from the given expression.
On expanding the left hand side of the expression we have;
= (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x)
Open the paranthesis
= 8x² −15x−x²+27x
collect the like terms
= 8x²−x²+27x −15x
= 7x²+12x
Comparing the resulting expression with ax²+bx
7x²+12x = ax²+bx
7x² = ax²
a = 7
Also;
12x = bx
b =12
The value of b - a = 12 - 7
b -a = 5
Hence the value of b-a is equivalent to 5
Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
Percentage decrease = (amount of decrease)/(original price)
✪ Solve ✪
3.85 - 1.54/3.85 x 100
2.31/3.85 x 100 = 60%
Hence, Percent decrease is 60%
