Turn each number into the product of it's prime factors.
32=16x2=2x2x2x2x2=2^5
48=24*2=6x4x2=2x3x2x2x2
Pick the highest number that occurs. In this case it is 2. Now we have to see how many times it appears in both. It appears 5 times in 32 and 4 times in 48. 4 is the highest number of times it appears in the numbers so:
2^4=2x2x2x2=16
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 32 and 48 is 16.
<u>Answer:</u>
Standard form of a line passing through (-2, 4) and having slope of -1/7 is x + 7y = 26
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that we need to determine standard form of a line that goes through (-2 , 4) and slope of the line is -1/7
Standard form of line passing through point ( a , b ) and having slope m is given by
(y – b) = m ( x – a) --------(1)
In our case given point is ( -2 , 4 ) and slope is -1/7 that means
a = -2 , b = 4 , m = -(1/7)
On substituting given value of a , b and m is equation (1) we get


=> 7( y - 4 ) = -x – 2
=> 7y + x = -2 + 28
=> x + 7y = 26
Hence standard form of a line passing through (-2,4) and having slope of –(1/7) is x + 7y = 26
Answer:
Given that the probability of winning is = 0.05
So the probability of losing is = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95.
We are told we have a 1 in 20 chance
Success: 0.05
Failure: 0.95
P(X=4)= 0.95*0.95*0.95*0.05
So the chance is 0.04286 or Option D
Answer:
10.5 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please consider the complete question.
Working together, two pumps can drain a certain pool in 6 hours. If it takes the older pump 14 hours to drain the pool by itself, how long will it take the newer pump to drain the pool on its own?
Let t represent time taken by newer pump in hours to drain the pool on its own.
So part of pool drained by newer pump in one hour would be
.
We have been given that it takes the older pump 14 hours to drain the pool by itself, so part of pool drained by older pump in one hour would be
.
Part of pool drained by both pumps working together in one hour would be
.
Now, we will equate the sum of part of pool emptied by both pumps with
and solve for t as:








Therefore, it will take 10.5 hours for the newer pump to drain the pool on its own.
