Answer:
2×2×3×3×5 are the prime factors of 180
Step-by-step explanation:
If you draw a factor tree, you would find that 2x2x3x3x5 are the prime factors of 180
hope this helps :)
Answer:
A) No, because the greatest common factor is 8y?, and the completely factored form is 8y2(4y2 - 6y + 3).
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the expression
4y(8y3 – 12y2 + 6y)
From the elements in the parenthesis, 2 and y can still be factored out such that what will be left of each element
8y3/2y = 4y2
12y2/2y = 6y
6y/2y = 3
Hence
4y(8y3 – 12y2 + 6y) = 4y*2y(4y2 - 6y +3)
= 8y2(4y2 - 6y + 3)
Answer:
the common ratio is either 2 or -2.
the sum of the first 7 terms is then either 765 or 255
Step-by-step explanation:
a geometric sequence or series of progression (these are the most common names for the same thing) means that every new term of the sequence is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor which is called the common ratio.
so,
a1
a2 = a1×f
a3 = a2×f = a1×f²
a4 = a3×f = a1×f³
the problem description here tells us
a3 = 4×a1
and from above we know a3 = a1×f².
so, f² = 4
and therefore the common ratio = f = 2 or -2 (we need to keep that in mind).
again, the problem description tells us
a2 + a4 = 30
a1×f + a1×f³ = 30
for f = 2
a1×2 + a1×2³ = 30
2a1 + 8a1 = 30
10a1 = 30
a1 = 3
for f = -2
a1×-2 + a1×(-2)³ = 30
-10a1 = 30
a1 = -3
the sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is
sn = a1×(1 - f^(n+1))/(1-f) for f <>1
so, for f = 2
s7 = 3×(1 - 2⁸)/(1-2) = 3×-255/-1 = 3×255 = 765
for f = -2
s7 = -3×(1 - (-2)⁸)/(1 - -2) = -3×(1-256)/3 = -3×-255/3 =
= -1×-255 = 255
Answer:
x = 0
, y = 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system:
{18 y - 12 x = 21
6 x - 9 = -9
In the second equation, look to solve for x:
{18 y - 12 x = 21
6 x - 9 = -9
Add 9 to both sides:
{18 y - 12 x = 21
6 x = 0
Divide both sides by 6:
{18 y - 12 x = 21
x = 0
Substitute x = 0 into the first equation:
{18 y = 21
x = 0
In the first equation, look to solve for y:
{18 y = 21
x = 0
Divide both sides by 18:
{y = 7/6
x = 0

Answer: {x = 0
, y = 7/6
