To find the common factors between two numbers, you must first break the numbers down into factors, and then find all common factors.
Let's break down 88.

88: 2 x 44, 4 x 22, 8 x 11.

Now let's break down 24.

24: 2 x 12, 3 x 8, 4 x 6.

Now that we've factored both numbers, let's select all the common factors.

Common factors:
1, 2, 4, 8.

I hope this helps!

(5, 3) and (8, -2) Write the standard form of the equation of the line that passes through the given points.

Lerok [7]

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(5,3)...x1 = 5 and y1 = 3
(8,-2)..x2 = 8 and y2 = -2
now we sub
slope = (-2 - 3) / (8 - 5) = -5 / 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5/3
use either of ur points..(5,3)...x = 5 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -5/3(5) + b
3 = -25/3 + b
3 + 25/3 = b
9/3 + 25/3 = b
34/3 = b

ur equation is y = -5/3x + 34/3...but we need it in standard form

y = -5/3x + 34/3
5/3x + y = 34/3
5x + 3y = 34 <=== standard form

Now given a rope hanging from the top of a pole. The end lying on the ground is 3 chi long. When tightly stretchedit is 8 chi fr

drek231 [11]

Answer:

Height of the pole = 9.17 chi.

Length of the rope = 12.17 chi.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rope is hanging from the top of a pole having height x chi and the portion of the rope lying on the ground is 3 chi.

So, the length of the rope= x + 3 chi.

Let AB represents the pole in the figure, and one end of the rope is at point A.
