Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 56 + 32 =

Mathematics

valentina_108 [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8 * (7 + 4)

See process below

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by writing each number in PRIME factor form:

56 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 7

32 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

Notice that the factors that are common to BOTH numbers are 2 * 2 * 2 (the product of three factors of 2).Therefore we see that the greatest common factor for the given numbers is : 2 * 2 * 2 = 8

Using this, we can write the two numbers as the product of this common factor (8) times the factors that are left on each:

56 = 8 * 7

32 = 8 * 2 * 2 = 8 * 4

We can then use distributive property to "extract" that common factor (8) from the given addition as shown below:

56 + 32

8 * 7 + 8 * 4

8 * (7 + 4)

8 * (11)

1. What is the volume, in cubic centimeters, of the sphere shown below? Use 3.14<br> for Pi
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

113.04 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter = 6cm

so radius = 3cm

Volume of sphere = \frac{4}3}\pi r^3

= 4 * 3.14 * 3 * 3 *3 / 3

=  4 * 28.26

= 113.04 cm³

Help Please. Can't seem to understand how to do this. I have tried and watch over 5 videos. Can't seem to get it.​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The solutions are the following:

  • z=2(cos(π6)+isin(π6))=√3+12i

  • z=2(cos(2π3)+isin(2π3))=−1+i√3

  • z=2(cos(7π6)+isin(7π6))=−√3−12i

  • z=2(cos(5π3)+isin(5π3))=1−i√3
