If we start with 6 and 8, we can break 6 up into 2*3 and 8 into 2*2*2, thus getting a prime factorization of 2*2*2*2*3, or 2^4 *3.
If we begin with 4 and 12, 4 breaks into 2*2 and 12 into 2*2*3, so the prime factorization of 48 is still 2^4 *3.
The starting factors do not matter, since the answer comes out to be the same. There is exactly one correct answer- it doesn't matter how it's found.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Archimedes was able o obtain the actual volume of the supposedly gold made object by collecting the water displaced by the object as it was sunk on a bowl filled with water to the rim. Then knowing the volume displaced and therefore the volume of the object, he could find the object's density (mass over volume). The mass he could get just by weighting the object. and compare that with the density of any other object made of real gold (like for example a coin) and see if the quotient was the same. The density of both objects should be the same if they are made of the same material.
C, the higher a negative is, the lower its value gets
Answer:
y = 3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y intercept
