Find the greatest common factor of

Mathematics
2 answers:
Gwar [14]3 years ago
6 0

For this case, we have by definition the greatest common factor or GFC is given by the greatest factor that divides two numbers. For example:

12 is divisible by 1,2,3,4,6,12

16 is divisible by 1,2,4,8,16

So the GFC of 12 and 16 is 4

Now, if we have:

x ^ 2y\ and\ xy ^ 2

The greatest common factor of both expressions is xy.

xy (x) = x ^ 2y\\xy (y) = xy ^ 2

Answer:

xy

Option D

Tom and Becky can paint Jim's fence together in 12 hours. If all people paint at the same rate, how many hours would it take to
Delvig [45]

Answer: 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time taken by each person to paint the fence.

Given: Tom and Becky can paint Jim's fence together in 12 hours.

Since all people paint at the same rate, then we have the following equation ;-

\dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{12}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{2}{x}=\dfrac{1}{12}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=24

Thus, the time taken by each person to paint the fence alone = 24 hours

Now, the time taken by all three paint together:-

\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{24}+\dfrac{1}{24}+\dfrac{1}{24}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3}{24}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t=\dfrac{24}{3}=8\text{ hours}

Hence, it would take 8 hours if all three paint together.

The inverse variation equation shows the relationship between wavelength in meters, x, and frequency, y.
Dmitrij [34]
The relationship between wavelength and frequency is expressed by the equation λν=c where λ is the wavelength, v is the frequency and c is the speed of light which has a value of 3x10^8 m/s.

 λν=c
 λ(3 × 10^9)= 3x10^8
 λ = 0.1 m

Hope this answers the question.

The length and width of a rectangle are 7 cm and (x-8) cm respectively. Find the value of x if the area with of the rectangle is
Tcecarenko [31]

to find the area of a rectangle is LxW=A

plug in the given numbers you have

L = 7

W = x-8

A = 42

7 * x-8 = 42

7x-56= 42

solve for X

Hat is the equation of the quadratic function with a vertex at (2,–25) and an x-intercept at (7,0)?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

y = x² - 4x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (2, - 25), thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 25

To find a substitute (7, 0) into the equation

0 = a(7 - 2)² - 25 = a(5)² - 25 = 25a - 25 ( add 25 from both sides )

25a = 25 ( divide both sides by 25

a = 1, thus

y = (x - 2)² - 25 ← in vertex form

Expand and simplify

y = x² - 4x + 4 - 25

y = x² - 4x - 21 ← in standard form
