What is the greatest common factor of 32a and 48b

Mathematics

SpyIntel [72]2 years ago
5 0

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.

Find the eqation of the line passing through the points(3,3) and (4,5)
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The Answer is: y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points: (3, 3) and (4, 5)

Find the slope, m:

m = y - y1/(x - x1)

m = 3 - 5/(3 - 4)

m = -2/-1 = 2

Use the Point Slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x - 4)

y - 5 = 2x - 8

y = 2x - 8 + 5

y = 2x - 3

Proof:

f(3) = 2(3) - 3

= 6 - 3 = 3, giving (3, 3)

The time it takes to process phone orders in a small florist/gift shop is normally distributed with a mean of 6 minutes and a st
Aleksandr [31]
E) 12 minutes

A normal curve has approximately 95% of graph between mean - 2sd and mean + 2sd
So 95% of the times will be between 0 and 12 minutes. 6 - 2x3 to 6 + 2x3
2.5% will take over 12 minutes

Strangely 2.5% will also take less than 0 minutes to process which shows the normal curve is not perfect in this example.

One eighth of a number is ten less than one third of the number. Find the number.
GarryVolchara [31]
X/8 - 10 = x/3

bring the values with the variable on one side

x/3 - x/8 = 10

find a common denominator and subtract these fractions

8x/24 - 3x/24 = -10

now subtract fractions

8x - 3x = 5x

5x/24 = -10

multiply both sides by 24

5x = -240

divide both sides by 5

x = -48

the number is -48
