The GCF of 24, 40, and 72 is 8.
The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
The factors of 40 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
The factors of 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Answer:
y = 0
x = -4
( x, y ) = ( -4 , 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5x + 20
y = -2x - 8
Substitute
5x + 20 = -2x - 8
Add 8 on both sides
5x + 20 + 8 = -2x - 8 + 8
5x + 28 = -2x
Subtract 5x on both sides
5x - 5x + 28 = -2x - 5x
28 = -7x
Divide by -7 on both sides
28/-7 = -7x/-7
-4 = x
Now that you have x, you can substitute it in one of the equations that was given to find the value of y.
y = 5(-4) + 20
y = -20 + 20
Or....
y = -2(-4) - 8
y = 8 - 8
They will both be 0 no matter what
Point form = ( -4, 0 )
Hope this helped
