The gcf of numbers can never be greater than both numbers, because in order to be a gcf, it must be a factor that both numbers have, so if one number does not have that then it is not a gcf.

Answer:

No, G.C.F. of pair of numbers can never be greater than both numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

G.C.F. (Greatest Common Factor) of pair of numbers is defined as the greatest factor of both the number that exactly divides both numbers.

For Example: G.C.F. of 14 and 21 =

36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

Common Factors of 36 and 48 = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12

∴ G.C.F. = 12

As, we see that G.C.F. is factor of given number. So, it can never be greater than given numbers.

How do I solve this please help!​
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

9 x + 8 y = 10   (I)

y = -4x + 7        (II)

One way is to rewrite the second as

4x + y = 7

Now multiply this equation by 8

32 x + 8 y = 56

9 x + 8 y = 10        and now subtract the equations

23 x = 46     this gives x as 2

From equation (II)  y = -4 (2) + 7  = -1

So our values are (2, -1)

Check:

(I) 9 x + 8 y = 10         9 * 2 - 8 = 10

(II)  4 x + y = 7       or 4 * 2 - 1 = 7

Or you can substitute equation (II) directly into equation (I)

Answer:

I think I explained the circle one before so I'll explain the left question because I wanted some points.

here,

area of circle is πr² which is given= 12 π cm²

so πr²= 12π

r= 2√3

d= 2r= 4√3

AB is diameter so AB= 4√3

Factor completely 5ax2 − 20x3 2a − 8x. (a 4x)(5x2 2) (a 4x)(5x2 − 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 − 2).
antiseptic1488 [7]

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.

Factor completely 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x.

Take 5x² common from the first two terms and 2 from the last two terms. we have

5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x

5x²(a − 4x) + 2 (a − 4x)

Take (a - 4) common, then we have

(5x² + 2) (y − 4x)

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.
