Answer:
Tamara incorrectly factored the whole expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that
- 21x=3·7·x;
- 56xy=2·2·2·7·x·y.
Mark in bold all common factors, then GCF(21x,56xy)=7·x=7x.
Thus,
21x+56xy=7x(3+8y).
Hence, Tamara correctly found the GCF of numbers 21 and 56, but incorrectly factored the whole expression.
Answer:
= 4374.
Step-by-step explanation:
it is important to understand the pattern hidden in such problem.Let’s give it a try 2, 6, 18, 54 and so on.It can be written as 2, 3*2, 9*2, 27*2 and so on.
This can be further written as2 (1, 3, 9, 27, and so on) as 2 is common in every term.Now if you see the chain 1,3,9, 27 and so….you will see a pattern hidden i.e. 3=1*3 ,9=1*3*3, 27=1*3*3*3 now 27 is the 4th term consist of three 3. So 8th term would consist of seven 3. 8th would be 8th term = 1*3*3*3*3*3*3*3 = 2187 Hence the 8th term for the series 2,6,18,54 would be= 2*2187 = 4374.
The price of 1 gallon is $4.15. You figure this out by dividing 33.20 by 8.
33.20/8 = 4.15
180-96= 84
That means 8x+12=84
84-12=72
That means 8x=72
72÷8=9
therefore X=9
