If the numbers are prime then the only factors are the numbers and 1.
For example - the factors of 5 are 1 and 5 and the factors of 7 are 1 and 7 so they only share the number 1.  That is the GCF of 5 and 7.

If a circle has an arc with the measure of 60° and the length of the arc is 50 in, what is the
Crazy boy [7]

Answer: radius = 47.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An arc is a portion of the circumference of the circle. The formula for determining the length of an arc is expressed as

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

Where

θ represents the central angle.

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

θ = 60 degrees

Length of arc = 50 inches

Therefore,

50 = 60/360 × 2 × 3.14 × r

Cross multiplying by 360, it becomes

18000 = 376.8r

r = 18000/376.8

r = 47.8 inches

Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C. Find an equation of a line passing through the pair of points (-7,3) and (-8,-9).
Illusion [34]

Answer:

  12x -y = -87

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line and manipulate it to give you the standard form.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  y = (-9 -3)/(-8 -(-7))(x -(-7)) +3

  y = (-12/-1)(x +7) +3

  y = 12x +84 +3

  -12x +y = 87 . . . . . subtract the x-term

  12x -y = -87 . . . . . . make the leading coefficient positive (per standard form)

Alexander says that 3x + 4y is equivalent to (3)(4) + xy because of any order, any grouping. Is he correct why or why not
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Alexander is incorrect because the expressions are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the expression is evaluated for any value of x, y; the result will not be same.

For instance, let assume x = 1 and y = 2

3x + 4y = 3 + 4 = 7

(3)(4) + xy = (3)(4) + (1 * 2) = 12 + 2 = 14

So, the expressions are not the same and Alexander is incorrect.
