Given : Two numbers 30 & 42 is given to us .

To Find : The HCF of 30 & 42 .

Solution : HCF is the highest number which divides the given two or more numbers without leaving any remainder .

So , let's find HCF ( Highest common factor ) by Division method :

= 30 ) 42 ( 1

- 30

__________

12 ) 30 ( 2

- 24

___________

6 ) 12 ( 2

- 12

___________

0 .

The last divisor is 6 .

<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>HCF</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>6</u><u>.</u>

A dog trainer has 96 ft of fencing that will be used to create a rectangular work area. Encloses area of 320 ft^2. What will be
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

<em>The dimensions of the area will be 8 ft x 40 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area and Perimeter</u>

The perimeter can be understood as the distance measured around a shape. The area gives us the idea of the space occupied by the shape. Being w and l the width and length of a rectangle, the perimeter and areas can be computed as follows

A=wl

P=2w+2l

The dog trainer has 96 ft of fencing to cover a 320 ft^2 rectangular area. This means that

wl=320

2w+2l=96

A system of equations is formed

\left\{\begin{matrix}wl=320\\ 2w+2l=96\end{matrix}\right

We divide the last equation by 2

w+l=48

solve for w

w=48-l

Replacing in the first equation

(48-l)l=320

Operating and arranging

l^2-48l+320=0

(l-8)(l-40)=0

We have two possible answers

l=8,\ l=40

Which gives us

w=40,\ w=8

In any case, the dimensions of the area will be 8 ft x 40 ft

Factorise the following.​
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

x²(9x– 11)(9x + 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

81x⁴ – 121x²

The expression can be factorised as follow:

81x⁴ – 121x²

x² is common to both term. Thus:

81x⁴ – 121x² = x²(81x² – 121)

Recall:

81 = 9²

121 = 11²

Therefore,

x²(81x² – 121) = x²(9²x² – 11²)

= x²[(9x)² – 11²]

Difference of two squares

x²(9x– 11)(9x + 11)

Therefore,

81x⁴ – 121x² = x²(9x– 11)(9x + 11)

Loris makes 20 bracelets in 50 minutes. Doris makes 44 bracelets in 2 hours. who makes more bracelets per hour. how many more?
Sedaia [141]
To do this, you'll have to get loris and doris to the same amount of time, we can already tell loris makes 40 bracelets in 100 minutes but we are still missing 20 minutes, so we got to do some math(Ofc we do its mathematics) if you divide 50 by 20 you'll get 2.5 which is how many minutes it takes to make a bracelet. So now we can go back to that missing 20 minutes, if you divide 20 by 2.5, you'll get 8. So in 2 hours loris makes 48 bracelets(20 + 20(50 hours each)=40 + 8(the missing 20 minutes) = 48) But here is the tricky part it says per an hour, so we need to reduce both by half, so loris makes 24 bracelets an hour and doris makes 22 bracelets an hour so loris makes 2 more bracelets and hour than doris... hope i've helped!
