The GCF of 16 and 40 is 8.
16/8 = 2
40/8 = 5
We can rewrite this using the distribute property like so:
<h3><u>8(2 + 5)</u></h3>
Using the distributive property:
16 + 40
16 + 40 = 56
We can also add inside the parentheses and multiply and we'll get the same answer.
8(7)
56
Answer:
15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Betty mows at 3 times the speed that Bullwinkle does, so is equivalent to having 3 Bullwinkles in her place. That makes the lawn get mowed as though 4 Bullwinkles were working, so it will take 1/4 the time it takes Bullwinkle to mow the whole yard. 1/4 of 60 minutes is 15 minutes.
Working together, Betty and Bullwinkle will take 15 minutes to mow the lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=1/3 or x=−3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
7x2+10x−3=x2+3x
Step 1: Subtract x^2+3x from both sides.
7x2+10x−3−(x2+3x)=x2+3x−(x2+3x)
6x2+7x−3=0
Step 2: (3x−1)(2x+3)=0
Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.
3x−1=0 or 2x+3=0
x=1/3 or x= −3/2
