Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

48 = 16·3

112 = 16·7

80 = 16·5

3, 5, 7 have no common factors. The GCF of {48, 112, 80} is 16.

_____

It can be helpful to recognize 48 = 16·3 and 80 = 16·5. A simple check shows 112 = 16·7, so 16 is the GCF.

You can find GCF(48,112) using Euclid's algorithm:

112 mod 48 = 16

48 mod 16 = 0 ⇒ GCF(48, 112) = 16

and the GCF(16, 80) is ...

80 mod 16 = 0 ⇒ GCF(16, 80) = 16

So, GCF(48, 80, 112) is 16.

Markus scored 85, 92, 82, and 94 on the first four tests of the semester. his teacher has not yet told him his score on his fift

Mila [183]

The average of the set of numbers is the quotient when the sum of the numbers is divided by the number of items. Given that Markus' fifth score x, the average is x+5. The equation for solving the fifth score and the arithmetic mean is,
(85 + 92 + 82 + 94 + x) / 5 = x + 5
Further simplifying gives,
(353 + x) / 5 = x + 5
Calculating for the value of x gives x = 82.

Two pumps connected in parallel fail independently of one another on any given day. The probability that only the older pump wil

Bogdan [553]

Answer : Probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day = 0.005

Explanation:

Probability that only older pump fail = P(A) = 0.10

Probability that only newer pump fail = P(B) = 0.05

Since they are independent events ,

then the conditions will be

P(A∩B) = P(A). P(B)

= 0.10 ×0.05

= 0.005

Hence, the probability will fail on any given day = 0.005

One of the factors of g2 − 28g + 196 is a. g-7 b. g-14 c. g+14 d. g+7

EastWind [94]

$g^{2}-28g+196=g^{2}-14g-14g+196=g(g-14)-14(g-14)= \\ \\ (g-14)(g-14)=(g-14)^{2}$

P.S :>

$(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}$
