Answer:

B. 16 and 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor or GCF, is the highest whole number that is a factor, or that multiplies to get, two or more numbers.

For example, option a, 8 and 28. 8 is a factor of 8, 8 times 1, but 8 is not a factor of 28. 28 divided by 8 will not give you a whole number.

Option c, 32 and 16, both have factors of 8. 4*8 is 32 and 8*2 is 16. This however, is not the gcf, because the true gcf is 16. 16*1 is 16 and 16*2 is 32. 16 will go into both evenly and is the highest number that will do so and is the gcf of that pair

d, 40 and 55, is the same as the first. 8*5 is 40, but 8 will not evenly go into 55 and cannot be a factor.

That leaves you with 16 and 56, the correct option

16 only has 3 factors, 16*1, 8*2, and 4*4, so 16, 8 and 4.

56 has more factors, 28, 14, 8, 7, 4, and 2. Those are the only numbers that multiply together to get 56. The highest number in both those lists is 8, so 8 is the Greatest Common Factor.

Hope this helps, and brainliest is much appreciated! Have an awesome day.

Martha wrote an example of a quadratic function for a homework assignment. The function she wrote is shown. f(x) = 5x3 + 2x2 + 7
larisa86 [58]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<u>The two correct options are:</u>

The first term, 5x³, can be eliminated

The exponent on the first term, 5x³, can be changed to 2 and then combined with the second term, 2x²

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The degree of an expression is given based on the highest power in the expression

<u>The given expression is:</u>

5x³ + 2x² + 7x - 3

We can note that the highest power in the given expression is 3 which means that <u>the degree of the expression is 3</u>

<u>A quadratic function</u> is a function of <u>degree 2</u>. This means that the highest degree in the expression (function) must be 2

Accordingly, Martha should get rid of the term with power 3 (5x³) in her equation

<u>This can be done by 2 methods:</u>

1- She simply eliminates the term with the third degree

2- She changes the degree of the term with degree 3 to a lower degree and combines it with any existent like term

<u>Comparing the above with the given options, we can conclude that the two correct options are:</u>

- The first term, 5x³, can be eliminated

- The exponent on the first term, 5x³, can be changed to 2 and then combined with the second term, 2x²

Hope this helps :)

A quadtratic equation that has x intercepts of -8,0 and 2,0 and has a vertical stretch of 3
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

f(x) = 3(x + 8)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercept form of a quadratic function is y = a(x - r)(x - s), where r and s are the x-intercepts and a is the vertical stretch/compression factor.

If the intercepts are at (-8, 0) and (2, 0), and the vertical stretch is 3, just substitute these values into the intercept form formula, and you're done!

Last month you went on three hikes. one hike was2 3/4 miles long one was 1 1/2 miles long and was 3 3/4 miles long. in decimal h
creativ13 [48]
2 3/4 = 2.75

1 1/2 = 1.5 

3 3.4 = 3.75

2.75 + 1.5 + 3.75 = 8

You hiked 8 miles last month in total.
