Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First prime factorize each number; this means breaking up the number into the product of only prime numbers.

24 = $2^3*3$

36 = $2^2*3^2$

72 = $2^3*3^2$

Looking at these three numbers, we see that the biggest number they share is of the form: $2^2*3$ , where is just 12.

Thus, the answer is B.

Hope this helps!

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the GCF by seeing if the number is divisible so for 9 24/9 isn’t a integer so no for 12 24 36 and 72 are divisible so it maybe the answer for 24 36/24 isnt a integer for 18 24/18 isn’t a integer

Consider the following region R and the vector field F. a. Compute the two-dimensional curl of the vector field. b. Evaluate bo

Shalnov [3]

Looks like we're given

$\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y\rangle$

which in three dimensions could be expressed as

$\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y,0\rangle$

and this has curl

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\langle0_y-(-y)_z,-(0_x-(-x)_z),(-y)_x-(-x)_y\rangle=\langle0,0,0\rangle$

which confirms the two-dimensional curl is 0.

It also looks like the region $R$ is the disk $x^2+y^2\le5$ . Green's theorem says the integral of $\vec F$ along the boundary of $R$ is equal to the integral of the two-dimensional curl of $\vec F$ over the interior of $R$ :

$\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\iint_R\mathrm{curl}\vec F\,\mathrm dA$

which we know to be 0, since the curl itself is 0. To verify this, we can parameterize the boundary of $R$ by

$\vec r(t)=\langle\sqrt5\cos t,\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\implies\vec r'(t)=\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle$

$\implies\mathrm d\vec r=\vec r'(t)\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt5\langle-\sin t,\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt$

with $0\le t\le2\pi$ . Then

$\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_0^{2\pi}\langle-\sqrt5\cos t,-\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\cdot\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle5\int_0^{2\pi}(\sin t\cos t-\sin t\cos t)\,\mathrm dt=0$

Becky put $100 into in the account to use for school expenses. The account earns 11% interest, compounded annually. How much wil

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: $187 will be in the account after 6 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $100

r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 6 years

Therefore,.

A = 100(1 + 0.11/1)^1 × 6

A = 100(1 + 0.11)^6

A = 100(1.11)^6

A = $187

how many days will it take a 14 year old boy to clean up trash for 12.5 hours at a low temperature of 47 degrees and high temper

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

It will take half of a day

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 12.5 is roughly half of the day, no matter what temperature is, it will take you this amount of time. You also need to include the time that you will use to take breaks and eat meals.
