Which expression(s) have a greatest common factor (GCF) of 3xy2 with 42xy4

Mathematics

Aleks [24]2 years ago

Answer:

3xy2

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF is the largest  factors which are common in two or more numbers.

We find the GCF of two or more number number by breaking each number into their factor and then observe which factors are common in the group and then we multiple the common number to get the GCF.

Lets understand this by an example

GCF of 24 and 36

factors of 12 = 2*2*2*3  ,   factors of 36 = 2*2*3*3

hence we see that 2,2 and 3 are common in 12 and 36 hence

GCF will be 2*2*3 = 12

Coming back to problem

given

Expression 1 is 3xy^2

factor of 3xy^2 = 3*x*y*y

Expression 2 is 42xy4

factor of 42xy4 = 2*3*7*x*y*y*y*y

common factor between the two expressions are

3, x, y , y

hence GCF will be = 3*x*y*y =3xy2  Answer

A square has a perimeter of 12x + 52 units. Which expression represents the side length of the square in units?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Option (3) is correct.

side length of square is (3x + 13 ) units.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a square with side 'a'. Perimeter is defined as the sum of length of side. Since, Square has four sides. Thus Perimeter of square = 4 × side

Given square has perimeter = 12x + 52

Comparing both sides,

4 × side = 12 x +  52

⇒ Side = \frac{12x+52}{4}

⇒ Side = \frac{4(3x+13)}{4}

⇒ Side = 3x + 13

Thus, side length of square is (3x + 13 ) units.

Thus, option (3) is correct.

Prove the following using a proof by contradiction:The average of four real numbers is greater than or equal to at least one of
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

By contradiction it can be proved that:

Average of four real numbers will be greater than or equal to at least one of the four real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method of contradiction means we assume opposite to the facts to be proved and then we contradict our assumption.

As a result, we prove the fact.

Here, let the four number be:

p, q, r, s

The average will be Sum of all numbers divided by count of numbers.

\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4

Now, let us assume the opposite that the average is less than all the numbers.

i.e.

\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4

\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4

Now, let us add all of them:

\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4  < p+q+r+s\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4(p+q+r+s)}4

Which can never be possible hence, our assumption is contradicted.

our assumption is wrong.

Therefore, by contradiction it is proved that:

Average of four real numbers will be greater than or equal to at least one of the four real numbers.

The surface areas of two similar figures are 4 in2 and 9 in2. If the volume of the larger figure is 216 in3, what is the volume
OverLord2011 [107]
We know that
surface area smaller figure=scale factor²*surface area larger figure
scale factor=√[surface area smaller figure/surface area larger figure]
scale factor=√[4/9]-----> scale factor=2/3
so
volume smaller figure=scale factor³*volume larger figure
volume smaller figure=(2/3)³*216----> (8/27)*216----> 64 in³

the answer is
the volume of the smaller figure is 64 in³
