To find the GCF:
-- List the factors of the first number.
-- List the factors of the second number.
-- Make a short list of the factors that show up for BOTH numbers.
-- Find the biggest number on the short list.
Factors of the first number (99): <u>1</u>, 3, 9, <u>11</u>, 33, 99 .
Factors of the second number (121): <u>1</u>, <u>11</u>, 121 .
Short list (factors that show up for both numbers): 1, 11
Biggest number on the short list: <em>11</em>

Explanation:
Make use of the properties of equality.
a = 2b +6 . . . . . given
a = 9b -8 . . . . . given
2b +6 = 9b -8 . . . . . . . substitution property of equality
6 = 7b -8 . . . . . . . . . . . subtraction property of equality
14 = 7b . . . . . . . . . . . . . addition property of equality
2 = b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . division property of equality
b = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . symmetric property of equality
B. It is vertically stretched by a factor of 4. If you had x^2 versus 4x^2, when x is positive and increasing, 4x^2 is increased by 4 for every value of x.
