GCF of given monomials are 4a^2

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given that we have to find the greatest common factor</u></em>

Given monomials are:

20a^3 \text{ and } 8a^2

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same, then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor

Let us first find the GCF of 20 and 8 and then find GCF of variables and then multiply them together

<em><u>GCF of 20 and 8:</u></em>

The factors of 8 are: 1, 2, 4, 8

The factors of 20 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

Then the greatest common factor is 4

GCF\ of\ a^3 \text{ and } a^2\\\\a^3 = a^2 \times a\\\\a^2 = a^2

Thus GCF is a^2

<em><u>Therefore GCF of monomials are:</u></em>

\text{GCF of } 20a^3 \text{ and } 8a^2 = 4 \times a^2 = 4a^2

Thus GCF of given monomials are 4a^2

State all integer values of x in the interval (-3, 3] that satisfy the following
Galina-37 [17]

(-3,3] is an interval which means that -3 and 3 are not inclusive of the values of x -5/3.

We have given

-3x+4 > 9

Required values of x.

State the values of x within -3 and 3.

subtract 4 from both sides,

-3x+4-4>9-4

<h3>What is the meaning of like terms?</h3>

like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.

Collect Like Terms

-3x > 5

(-3x)(-1)   <   5(-1)

3x  <  -5

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 < -5/3

x    <   -5/3

(-3,3] is an interval which means that -3 and 3 are not inclusive of the values of x is -5/3.

It takes 32 hours for a motorboat moving downriver to get from pier A to pier B. The return journey takes 48 hours. How long doe
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is T = 192.12 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat = u \frac{km}{hr}

Speed of current = v \frac{km}{hr}

Let distance between A & B = 100 km

Time taken in downstream = 32 hours

32 = \frac{100}{u +v}

u + v = \frac{100}{32}

u + v = 3.125 ------ (1)

Time taken in upstream = 48 hours

48 = \frac{100}{u -v}

u -v = \frac{100}{48}

u - v = 2.084 ------- (2)

By solving equation (1) & (2)

u = 2.6045 \frac{km}{hr}

v = 0.5205 \frac{km}{hr}

Now the time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance

T = \frac{100}{v}

Because un powered raft travel with the speed of the current.

T = \frac{100}{0.5205}

T = 192.12 hr

Therefore the  time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is

T = 192.12 hr

Find the measure of each angle indicated. Show work.​
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

? = 109 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

45 + 75 + _ = 180  ( look for vertical angles)

45 + 75 + 60 = 180

60 +79 + _ = 180 (look for a straight line that forms 180 degrees)

60 + 79 + 41 = 180

68 + 41 + _ = 180 (look for a triangle that adds up to 180)

68 + 41 + 71 =180

180 - 71 = 109 (look for a linear pair)
