Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 16/24 the simplest form you can find the GCF (greatest common factor) of 16 and 24:

16:

1 x 16

2 x <u>8</u>

4 x 4

24:

1 x 24

2 x 12

3 x <u>8</u>

4 x 6

They both have a factor of 8 in common, so 8 is your GCF

Divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF) to get the most simplified fraction.

16 / 8 = 2

24 / 8 = 3

2/3 is the simplest form of 16/24

Lerok [7]

Answer:

A) 2(9x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor of 18x and -4 is 2.

B is wrong because 18 is not the greatest common factor of both, since 4 cannot be divided by 18 and result in a whole number.

C is wrong because 18x cannot be divided by 4 to produce a whole number.

D is wrong because it restates the problem in a different way, therefore not factoring it completely. 1 is a common factor of both, but not the greatest.

Solve the system by using the technique of ‘elimination’: -2x+5y=-42,7x+2y=30
Gekata [30.6K]

Solve the following system using elimination:

{5 y - 2 x = -42 | (equation 1)

7 x + 2 y = 30 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{7 x + 2 y = 30 | (equation 1)

-(2 x) + 5 y = -42 | (equation 2)

Add 2/7 × (equation 1) to equation 2:

{7 x + 2 y = 30 | (equation 1)

0 x+(39 y)/7 = (-234)/7 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 7/39:

{7 x + 2 y = 30 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -6 | (equation 2)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{7 x+0 y = 42 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -6 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 7:

{x+0 y = 6 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -6 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 6, y = -6

Find the x and y intercepts of the graph of the function
Mkey [24]

Answer:

y intercepts= 0       x intercepts= none

nation:

The 2 funtions above the x axis do not intercept with the y-axis or the x-axis. They just hover above it, but never atcually touch it.

The function bellow the x-axis only intercepts the y-axis at 0,0
