how can you write a sum of numbers as the product of their GCF (greatest common factor)and another sum?

1 answer:

6 0

Example: 12+24 GCF: 12: 1,2,3,4,6,12 24: 1,2,3,4,6,8,24 Common factors: 1,2,3,4,6 Greatest factor: 6 Divide: 12 divided 6= 2 24 divided 6= 4 12+24= 6x(2+4)

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Problem 1:</u>

A standard deck of cards contains 52 cards, consisting of 13 spades. If you select only one randomly, the probability of that occurring would be 13/52 or 1/4. Since there are only 26 red cards in a standard deck, then the probability of selecting a red card would be 26/52 or 1/2. Because the two events are independent of each other, their probabilities are multiplied. Therefore, the probability of selecting a spade, and then replacing it in hopes of drawing a red card is (1/2)(1/4) = 1/8.

<u>Problem 2:</u>

We are selecting a spade and then another spade while NOT replacing the first spade (remember that these events are independent of each other also). This means that the total card count will change by picking up the second card. Therefore, the probability of selecting a spade, followed by another spade, is (13/52)(12/51) = 156/2652 = 1/17.

Shelley buys one pack of gum for $1

Price of gum: $1

Total amount of money spent: $1.00

Shelley buys another pack of gum for $0.50 more

1 + 0.50 = 1.5

Price of gum: $1.50

Total amount of money spent: $2.50

Find the difference (7a-6b+7) - (8a-2)

olga nikolaevna [1]

Hey there!

Let's set up our expression:

(7a-6b+7)-(8a-2)

In order to simplify, we can use that subtraction sign and distribute it, using the distributive property. We have:

7a-6b+7-8a+2

Notice how it's plus two, because a negative times a negative two is a positive two. Now, it's a matter of finding the like terms and adding or subtracting them. These like terms can either have no variable, or have different coefficients but the same variable. That means our like terms are the 7a and -8a, and the 7 and 2. There's no like term for the 6b. That means we have:

(7a-8a) - 6b + (7+2) =

-a - 6b + 9

Hope this helps!

I NEED ANSWER SUPER BAD PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!What is the greatest integer less than 100 for which the greatest common divisor of tha

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will list out the numbers which are factors of 12. They include:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.

We need to get the highest number that has its greatest factor to be 4. It means that 6 and 12 cannot divide it.

To do this, we will write out the multiples of 4. They include:

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88,92,96.

We will have to choose the highest number which only 4 can divide and 6 and 12 cannot divide.

Since we are looking for the largest, We can try dividing all the numbers by 4, 6, and 12 starting from 96.

We will quickly see that 4 can divide 92 but 6 and 12 cannot.

This gives us 92 as the answer.

Yellow Taxi Cabs charges a $7 flat rate in addition to $2.25 per mile. Kate has $100 to spend on transportation. How many miles

enyata [817]

Kate can travel 41.33 miles without exceeding her limit. This problem can be solved by using y = 2.25x + 7 linear equation with the "y" variable as the total cost that Kate must pay after she has traveled with the cab and the "x" variable as Kate's traveling distance. The equation has 7 for its constant value which is the $7 flat rate. We will find 41.33 miles as the traveling distance if we substituted the total cost with 100, which is the maximum amount that can be paid by Kate for the traveling purpose.
