-------------------------------------------
Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x

-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5

-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet

-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.

Which terms and 45p^4q have a GCF of 9p^3?
vredina [299]

Answer:

The answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3

Step-by-step explanation:

G.C.F of 18p^3 r and  45p^4q is = 9p^3

18p^3r = 2*3*3*p*p*p*r

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

G.C.F of  63p^3 and  45p^4q is = 9p^3

63p^3 = 3*3*7*p*p*p

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

Therefore the answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3....

Prove usin's Mathematical induction 2^n ≤(n+1)!, for n≥0​
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2^0 is less than or equal to 1!, because 1<= 1

if 2^n <= (n+1)!, we wish to show that 2^(n+1) <= (n+2)!, since

(n+2)! = (n+1)! * (n+2), and (n+1)!>= 2^n, then we want to prove that n+2<=2, which is always true for n>=0
