The greatest common factor is the biggest number taken from the values.

Q1. The answer is <span>A. 5y^6
</span>
$20 y^{9} +5 y^{6}= 4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}$
Since $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ , then $x^{9}= x^{3}* x^{6}$

Back to our expression:
$4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}=4*5 y^{3}*y^{6}+5 y^{6}=4 y^{3}*5y ^{6}+ 5y ^{6}*1=5 y^{6} (4y ^{3} +1)$
The greatest common factor is thus $5 y^{6}$

Q2. The answer is <span>D. 12xy^2
</span>
$12x y^{5}+60 x^{4} y^{2} -24 x^{3} y^{3}=12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}$
We will use the rule $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ to factorise the exponents:
$12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}= \\ =12x*y^{2}*y^{3}+5*12*x* x^{3} *y^{2}-2*12x* x^{2} *y*y^{2}= \\ =12xy^{2}*y^{3}+12xy^{2}*5 x^{3} -12xy^{2}*2 x^{2} y= \\ =12xy^{2}(y^{3}+5 x^{3}-2 x^{2} y)$
The greatest common factor is thus $12xy^{2}$

Brenda took out a personal loan for $12,000 at an interest rate of 12% compounded monthly. She made arrangements to pay the loan

iragen [17]

Answer: her monthly payments would be $267

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the periodic interest rate formula which is expressed as

P = a/[{(1+r)^n]-1}/{r(1+r)^n}]

Where

P represents the monthly payments.

a represents the amount of the loan

r represents the annual rate.

n represents number of monthly payments. Therefore

a = $12000

r = 0.12/12 = 0.01

n = 12 × 5 = 60

Therefore,

P = 12000/[{(1+0.01)^60]-1}/{0.01(1+0.01)^60}]

12000/[{(1.01)^60]-1}/{0.01(1.01)^60}]

P = 12000/{1.817 -1}/[0.01(1.817)]

P = 12000/(0.817/0.01817)

P = 12000/44.96

P = $267
