Answer:

⁵/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are at the foot of the guy wire, the wire is going <em>up</em>.

Slope = Δy/Δx = 25/15 = ⁵/₃

If you are at the top of the pole, the wire is going <em>down</em>.

Slope = Δy/Δx = -25/15 = -⁵/₃

Answer:

The GCF is 3w

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the GCF of

6w^3, 3w^2, 9w

You can start with 3. Then get:

6w^3/3 = 2w^3

3w^2/3 = w^2

9w/3 = 3w

The following factor is w. It has to have an exponent of one, as it the smallest exponent present in the 3 numbers:

2w^3/w = 2w

w^2/w = w

3w/w = 3

Expression:

6w^3 - 3w^2 - 9w= 3w(2w^2 - w - 3)

The GCF is 3w.
