The GCF of the three terms (9a, -18b and 21c) is 3
Rewrite each of the terms so 3 is a factor
9a = 3*3a
-18b = -3*6b
21c = 3*7c
So we can say...
9a - 18b + 21c = 3*3a - 3*6b + 3*7c
9a - 18b + 21c = 3(3a - 6b + 7c)
Answer: 3(3a - 6b + 7c)
If you distribute outer 3 to each of the inner terms and multiply, you'll get the original expression again.
Hi There!
Dori leaves her house at 12pm.
50 steps per minute until 12:20pm.
Dori has a 20 minute advantage over Malory, find the amount of steps she is ahead by,
12 - 12:20pm. steps = 20 minutes = 20 x 50 = 1000 steps
Malory leaves her house at 12:20pm.
Walks 90 steps per minute.
12:20 - 12:30 pm. = 10 minutes = 10 x 90 = 900
Dori 12:20 - 12:30pm. = 10 minutes = 10 x 50 = 500
500 + 1000 = 1500
Mallory 12:30 - 12:40 = 10 minutes = 10 x 90 = 900
900 + 900 = 1800
Dori 12:30 - 12:45pm. = 15 minutes = 15 x 50 = 500
1750 + 500 = 2250
Mallory 12:40 - 12:45pm. = 5 minutes = 10 x 90 = 900
450 + 1800 = 2250
Answer: they have the same number steps at 12:45 p.m.
Hope This Helps :)
A hamburger costs $2.5 and a milkshake costs $1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Form equations from the given details. Let cost of 1 hamburger be H and cost of 1 milkshake be M.
4H + 2M = 13.50 ------ (1)
& 3H + 1M = 9.25 ------ (2)
- Step 2: Multiply eq(2) with 2 to make coefficients of M equal.
6H + 2M = 18.50 ------- (3)
- Step 3: Subtract eq(3) from eq(1)
⇒ - 2H = - 5
⇒ H = $2.5
- Step 4: Substitute value of H in eq(2) to find M.
⇒ 3 × 2.5 + M = 9.25
⇒ 7.5 + M = 9.25
⇒ M = $1.75
