The prime factorization of 240 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
The easy way I was taught how to find the product of primes is: Draw a vertical line. On the left write your number. On the right, write the smallest Prime number that is a factor of this number (i.e ask, does it divide by 2? If the answer is no, then ask does it divide by 3, 5, 7 etc etc until you find a number that does). Then divide the number on the left by the number on the right and write it under the number on the left. Repeat this process until the number on the left is equal to the number on the right (i.e. a prime number).
eg, for 240:
240 | 2
120 | 2
60 | 2
30 | 2
15 | 3
5 | 5
To solve, simply do this:
Then you'll get the answer, -7/16
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide each side by 1.6 to get m alone, thus getting the answer, so 1.6m/1.6 and 40/1.6
Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
(Look at the image I attached)
Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.
(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify
4 + 36 = c^2
40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.
c = sqrt(40)
So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.
