Answer:
18 is the greatest common factor between those
Answer:
C. 10z(x - 2y)
Step-by-step explanation:
10xz − 20y
Factor the terms
Factors of 10xz = 2 × 5 × x × z
Factors of -20yz = (-1) × 2 × 2 × 5 × y × z
Identify their greatest common factor
The common factors are 2, 5, and z. The greatest common factor is 10z.
Rewrite them with the GCF as a factor
10xz = 10z × x
-20yz = 10z × (-2y)
Replace the terms in the original expression with the factored terms
10xz − 20yz = 10z(x) + 10z(-2y)
Use the distributive property to isolate the greatest common factor
10z(x) + 10z(-2y) = 10z(x - 2y)
Answer:
12 1/2 or 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
all you have to do is multiply 15 times 5/6
Answer:
B) Isolate the variable through inverse operations
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to get the value of y, we need to get y by itself. Since y is being multiplied by the coefficient 7, dividing both sides by 7 gets us y=10, so B is the right choice.
FOIL is a mnemonic rule for multiplying binomial (that is, two-term) algebraic expressions.
FOIL abbreviates the sequence "First, Outside, Inside, Last"; it's a way of remembering that the product is the sum of the products of those four combinations of terms.
For instance, if we multiply the two expressions
(x + 1) (x + 2)
then the result is the sum of these four products:
x times x (the First terms of each expression)
x times 2 (the Outside pair of terms)
1 times x (the Inside pair of terms)
1 times 2 (the Last terms of each expression)
and so
(x + 1) (x + 2) = x^2 + 2x + 1x + 2 = x^2 + 3x + 2
[where the ^ is the usual way we indicate exponents here in Answers, because they're hard to represent in an online text environment].
Now, compare this to multiplying a pair of two-digit integers:
37 × 43
= (30 × 40) + (30 × 3) + (7 × 40) + (7 × 3)
= 1200 + 90 + 280 + 21
= 1591
The reason the two processes resemble each other is that multiplication is multiplication; the difference in the ways we represent the factors doesn't make it a fundamentally different operation.
