Answer:

Following are the true statements

2. The factors common to 20a and 15ab are 1, 5, and a.

3. The factors common to 20a and 24b are 1, 2, and 4.

5. The GCF of the expression is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression is  20a + 15ab + 24b

Now lets have a look at each of the options provided!

1. The factors common to 20a and 15ab are 1, 5, a, and b.

False

As you can see there is no b in 20a term only 1,5,a are common hence it is false.

2. The factors common to 20a and 15ab are 1, 5, and a.

True

The terms 20a and 15ab are divisible by 1,5,a hence it is true.

3. The factors common to 20a and 24b are 1, 2, and 4.

True

The terms 20a and 24b are divisible by 1,2,4 hence it is true

4. The GCF of the expression is ab.

False

20a + 15ab + 24b

As you can see ab is not common in all of the terms hence it cannot be greatest common factor

5. The GCF of the expression is 1

True

Factor of 20 are: 2,2,5,1

Factor of 15 are: 3,5,1

Factor of 24 are: 2,2,2,3,1

As you can see the only common factor among all the terms is 1 hence GCF is 1.

Solve |p + 2| = 10Solve |p + 2| = 10<br><br> {-12}<br> {-8, 8}<br> {-12, 8}
valentinak56 [21]

By definition, we have

|p+2| = \begin{cases} p+2 &\text{ if } p+2 \geq 0 \\-p-2 &\text{ if } p+2 < 0 \end{cases}

So, we have to solve two different equations, depending of the possible range for the variable. We have to remember about these ranges when we decide to accept or discard the solutions:

Suppose that p+2\geq 0 \iff p \geq -2

In this case, the absolute value doesn't do anything: the equation is

p+2 = 10 \iff p = 10-2 = 8

We are supposing p \geq -2, so we can accept this solution.

Now, suppose that p+2 < 0 \iff p < -2. Now the sign of the expression is flipped by the absolute value, and the equation becomes

-p-2 = 10 \iff -p = 12 \iff p = -12

Again, the solution is coherent with the assumption, so we can accept this value as well.
