Factor out the greatest common factor: -16x? + 12x?

1 answer:

Answer:

4x is the greatest common factor of those two.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-16x + 12x)

4x (-4 + 3)

4x is the GCF

Why you may ask is 4x the GCF because when you divide 4x from both you're left with -4 + 3...... you can't take out the negative from the 16 because when you check your work negative 4x times 3 gives you negative 12x which isn't the equation you started with. So positive 4x times 3 give you 12x.

Hopes this helps!!!

A mirror is 24 inches high and 28 inches wide. The center of the mirror will hang 514 feet from the floor on a wall that is 8 fe

Vanyuwa [196]

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches

The dimension of the mirror is given as:

$Height = 24\ in$

$Width = 28\ in$

From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:

$Distance =5\frac14\ ft$

So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height$

Substitute 24 for height

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in$

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 75 \ in$

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.

So, we have:

$Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 21\ in$

Hence, the distance is 21 inches
