Answer:

GCF = $x^{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 19 $x^{7}$ , 3 $x^{5}$ .

To find : What is the greatest common factor

Solution : We have given that 19 $x^{7}$ , 3 $x^{5}$ .

The greatest common factor is the product of the highest common factors in each number.

We can write $x^{7}$ as $x^{5}$ * $x^{2}$

Factor of 19 $x^{7}$ = 1 , 19 , $x^{5}$ , $x^{2}$ .

Factor of 3 $x^{5}$ .= 1 , 3, $x^{5}$ .

So, GCF = 1 , $x^{5}$ .

Therefore, GCF = $x^{5}$ .

Simple,

first find what 19*7 and 3*5 is,

19*7=133
and
3*5=15

Factors in 133:
1,7,19,133

Factors in 15:
1,3,5,15

The GCF of 133 and 15 is 1. You can't simplify/reduce it anymore.

Plutonium-240 decays according to the function Q(t)=Q(subscripto)e^(-kt) where Q represents the quantity remaining after t years

svetoff [14.1K]

<span>The answer is 9,990 years. Using the exponential decay question, we can figure out how long it will take Plutonium-240 to decay from 27 grams to 9 grams. Setting the equation up looks like this, 9 = 27 e^ (-0.00011 t). From this you get, 0.333333 = e ^(-0.00011 t). Next, you simplify by dividing both sides by the natural log, -1.0986 = -0.00011 t. Finally, you solve by dividing both sides by -0.00011, giving 9,987 years for t, rounded up to 9,990 years.</span>

The top of a rectangular table has an area of 11 square feet. It has a length that is 3.5 feet more than the width. Find the dim

pashok25 [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let the width be w, then the length is w+3.5.

This means that w(w+3.5)=11

w^2 + 3.5w - 11 = 0

2w^2 + 7w - 22 = 0 (multiply both sides by 2)

(2w+11)(w-2)=0

w = -11/2 or w = 2 (disregard w = -11/2 as distance is positive)

This means that w=2, and thus the length is 2+3.5=5.5

Assume that x is a char variable has been declared and already given a value. Write an expression whose value is true if and onl

Lorico [155]

Answer:

bool b = isupper(x);

Step-by-step explanation:

I have written the expression for a char variable x.The isupper(x) will return true if the character x is upper case and false if the character x is lower case.

I have stored the returned value to a bool variable b .So the value of variable b will be true only when the x is in uppercase and false when b is lower case.

An investment firm invested in two companies last year. They invested $11,000 in Company A and made a profit of 24% . They inves

Tema [17]

First off, "whatever%" of "anything" is just (whatever/100) * anything

part A)

so... firm A got 11,000 invested, turned a profit of 24%, how much is 24% of 11000? well (24/100) * 11000

firm B got 14,000 invested, and returned 15% in profits, how much is 15% of 14000? (15/100) * 14000

part B)

for the amounts above, we get 2640 and 2100 respectively

so, the total profit "amount" is 2640 + 2100 or 4740

the total investement was 11000+14000 = 25000

if 25000 is the 100%, how much is 4740 in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
25000&100\\
4740&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{25000}{4740}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x"
