Mathematics
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]3 years ago
6 0

Answer

12 (5 - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor is the largest number that will divide both numbers evenly. As an example, 6 is a common factor because it divides both 60 and 36. However, it is not the greatest common factor.

 

If I break 60 into it's prime factors, I would get 2 * 2 * 3 * 5.

 

If I break 36 into it's prime factors, I would get 2 * 2 * 3 * 3.

 

The two number have the factors, 2, 2, and 3 in common.

 

The greatest common factor is then: 2 * 2 * 3, or 12.

 

The expression can be factored as:  12 ( 5 - 3)

The answer would be A.

Explanation:

If they enter with one car, that’s a price of $3 for the car alone. Because there’s also a fee for each person who enters, and there is a family of 5 who enters, x is representative of the cost for each person who enters. Therefore, there would be 5 x’s and one 3 that when solved would add up to the total of $45 they spent. That would mean A is correct because the equation would be x + x + x + x + x + 3 = 45.

Julie wanted to earn money to attend a basketball camp. She started with a gift of money from her grandparents and then saved $2
adoni [48]
The equation would be y = 25x + 50

In order to find this equation, we need to know how much the gift from her grandparents was. To do so, we have to find out how much she's saved from dog walking. 

Since she saves $25 a month for 7 months, we can find the total amount as:

25*7 = 175

Then we can subtract that from the total she has saved to find the amount for the gift.

225 - 175 = 50

Finally, we put the amount per month in the equation with the gift as the y intercept to create the equation above.
