The greatest common factor is such a term which can be taken out common from all the terms of the expression leaving behind no common term in the expression.
In the given expression the greatest common factor is 2x³
So, the answer to this question is option A
We have from Thales theorem that because the 2 triangles are similar, JM/JK=JN/JL. We have that JN=x, JL=x+24 and that JM=7 and JK=28. Substituting, we get:
x/(x+24)=7/28.
Hence, x/(x+24)=1/4. This leads to 4x=x+24, 3x=24, x=8. We have solved for x=JN and this is equal to 8.
f(x) = log2 x
f(40) = log2 40
40 = 2^y
2^5 = 32 and 2^6 = 64
so f(40) lies between integers 5 and 6.
This is gcf greatest common factor
