Answer:

A) 2(9x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor of 18x and -4 is 2.

B is wrong because 18 is not the greatest common factor of both, since 4 cannot be divided by 18 and result in a whole number.

C is wrong because 18x cannot be divided by 4 to produce a whole number.

D is wrong because it restates the problem in a different way, therefore not factoring it completely. 1 is a common factor of both, but not the greatest.

Jake is using a horse trailer to take his horses to his new ranch. 1 Horse= 1,200 lb Trailer= 2,700 lb Jake's truck can tow a ma

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of 1 horse = 1,200 lb

Weight of trailer = 2,700 lb

Jacks'truck can tow a maximum of 5000 pounds.

To find the maximum number of horses Jack can take in his trailer without going over the maximum weight his truck can tow.

Solution:

Let the maximum number of horses that Jack can take be = $x$

Using unitary method to find weight of $x$ horses.

If 1 horse weights = 1,200 lb

Then $x$ horses will weight in lbs = $1,200\times x = 1,200x$

Total weight of horses and trailer in lbs = $1200x+2700$

Since the maximum weight the truck can tow = 5,000 lb, so the inequality can be given as:

$1200x+2700\leq5000$

Subtracting both sides by 2700.

$1200x+2700-2700\leq5000-2700$

$1200x\leq2300$

Dividing both sides by 1200.

$\frac{1200x}{1200}\leq\frac{2300}{1200}$

$x\leq1.91$

From the inequality solution for $x$ , we can conclude that Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.
