First, do the prime factorization.

96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3

72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

The GCF is the product of their shared factors.

They share 2, 2, 2, and 3.

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24.

Their GCF is 24.

If nx10^p is a positive number written in scientific notation which statements must be true? Select all that apply

liq [111]

For this case we have the following number written in scientific notation:

$n * 10 ^ p$

We know that this number is greater than zero because it is a positive number.

Therefore, the following statements are true:

p ∈ (-∞, ∞)

n must be between 1 and 10

n ∈ [1, 10]

Answer:

The following statements are correct about the number written in scientific notation:

p ∈ (-∞, ∞)

n ∈ [1, 10]

5x + 4m = 43my + 6 solve for m

pav-90 [236]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

m = (5x -6)/(43y -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 4m+6 to separate m-terms from other terms.

5x +4m -(4m +6) = 43my +6 -(4m +6)

5x -6 = 43my -4m

5x -6 = m(43y -4) . . . . factor out m

(5x -6)/(43y -4) = m . . . . divide by the coefficient of m
