Answer:

8(-3x+2y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the GCF of -24x and 16y

The GCF is 8 so put -24x and 16y in parenthesis

(-24x+16y)

Now put the 8 outside the parenthesis and divide 8 on both -24x and 16y and put the quotient inside the parenthesis to replace the -24x and 16y:

-24x/8 = -3x

16y/8=2y

8(-3x+2y)

Hope this helps!

The difference between the square of two numbers is 11. Twice the square of the first number increased by the square of the seco

jeyben [28]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - y^2 = 11

2x^2 + y^2 = 97

From the first equation:

y^2 = x^2 - 11

Substituting in the second equation:

2x^2 + x^2 - 11 = 97

3x^2 = 108

x^2 = 36

x = 6, -6.

Substituting for x in the first equation:

(6)^2 - y^2 = 11

y^2 = 36 - 11 = 25

y = 5, -5.

A 13-foot ladder is placed against a vertical wall of a building, with the bottom of the ladder standing on level ground 5 fee

Tanzania [10]

The answer is 12 because (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

5^2 + b^2 = 13^2
25 + b^2 = 169

169- 25 = 144
$\sqrt{144}$ Sqaure root of 144 is 12 so If we plug that in..
25 + 144 = 169
5^2 + 12^2 =13^2
This all checks out
