ANSWER

The greatest common factor is
8

EXPLANATION

We want to find the greatest common factor of
8x \: and \: 40.



We use prime factorization to find the greatest common factor of
8x \:  \: and \:  \: 40.


The prime factorization of 8x is,

8x =  {2}^{3}  \times x

The prime factorization of 40 is

40 =  {2}^{3}  \times 5



The greatest common factor of 8x and 40 is

{2}^{3}  = 8

Youssef can either way from his home to his workplace or ride his bicycle. he walks at a pace of 1 block per min, but he can tra
alex41 [277]

Youssef lives 15 blocks away from his work

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Youssef can either way from his home to his workplace or ride his bicycle

Let "x" be number of blocks away from work Youssef works

<u><em>Case 1: walking</em></u>

He walks at a pace of 1 block per min

Therefore,

1 block = 1 minute

Thus to cross "x" blocks he takes "x" minutes

<em><u>Case 2: Bicycle</u></em>

He can travel 1 block in 20 sec on his bicycle

We know that,

To convert seconds to minute, divide the time value by 60

\rightarrow 20 seconds = \frac{20}{60} minutes = \frac{1}{3} minutes

Thus he takes 1/3 minutes for 1 block

So to cross "x" blocks he will take \frac{x}{3} minutes

Given that it takes youssef 10 min longer to walk to work than to ride his bike

This means difference between time taken to cross "x" blocks by walking and ride by bicycle is 10 minutes

\rightarrow x - \frac{x}{3} = 10\\\\\rightarrow \frac{3x - x}{3} = 10\\\\\rightarrow \frac{2x}{3} = 10\\\\\rightarrow x = \frac{30}{2}\\\\\rightarrow x = 15

Thus he lives 15 blocks away from his work

Find length,width and area<br><br>plus bonus<br><br>please show work ​
stira [4]

A square with the same perimeter as a rectangle will have larger area.

However, 42 is not divisible by 4, so we can do 10 by 11.

Length = 11, Width = 10, Area = 110

42 / 4 = 10.5

Length and Width = 10.5, Area = 110.25
