No, She is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greatest common factor of the expression 20x + 100xy.

Given expression 20x + 100xy.

Let us factor the expression 20x + 100xy.

Now take the common factor in the expression 20x + 100xy.

The common factor is 20x.

So, 20x + 100xy = 20x( 1+ 5y)

But Claudia says that the greatest common factor is 20(x+5xy).

The GCF is wrong.

So, she is not correct.

Answer:

y=3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is y=mx=b

You can find the slope by finding two points that lie on the line (1,1) & (0,-2)

The formula for slope is $m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{ x_{2} -x_{1} }$

You plug the values in and you get $m=\frac{1-(-2)}{ 1 -0 }$

Simplify and you get 3

The slope is 3

The y-intercept (b) is -2

The quantity r varies jointly with t and u and inversely with s when t= -12, u= -7, and s= -4, r= -126. Find r when t= -8, u= 8,

vichka [17]

Answer:

r = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

r = (k*t*u)/s

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

t = -12,

u= -7,

s= -4,

r= -126.

r = (k*t*u)/s

-126 = (k*-12*-7)/-4

-126 * -4 = 84k

504 = 84k

k = 504/84

k = 6

Find r when t= -8, u= 8, and s= -6.

r = (k*t*u)/s

= (6*-8*8) / -6

= -384 / -6

= 64

r = 64
