Problem 33
For each number, generate a factor tree. This is where you break a number down into smaller factors in a visual "tree" like style. The idea is to factor down to the prime factors and then you circle the common primes between each number. The values you circle are then multiplied if you circle more than one value in each tree.

Problem 34
Xiao factored correctly but didn't pull out the GCF. So he didn't factor fully. In the case of 60 and 90, the GCF is 30. This is the largest shared factor between the two values. So we can pull out 30 to get
60+90 = 30*2+30*3 = 30*(2+3)
I'm basically using the distributive property in reverse. You can distribute the 30 back in and get 60+90 again. Notice how the inner stuff 2 and 3 have no factors in common other than 1.
1) gradient of line = Δ y ÷ Δ x
= (5 -2) ÷ (3 - (-6))
= ¹/₃
using the point-slope form (y-y₁) = m(x-x₁)
using (3,5)
(y - 5) = ¹/₃ (x -3)
y - 5 = ¹/₃x - 1
⇒ <span> y = ¹/₃ x + 4 [OPTION D]
</span>2) y = 2x + 5 .... (1)
<span> </span>y = ¹/₂ x + 6 .... (2)
by substituting y in (1) for y in (2)
2x + 5 = ¹/₂ x + 6
³/₂ x = 1
x = ²/₃
by substituting found x (2)
y = ¹/₂ (²/₃) + 6
y = ¹⁹/₃
∴ common point is (²/₃ , ¹⁹/₃) thus answer is FALSE [OPTION B]
3) Yes [OPTION A]
This is because the both have a gradient of 5 and if they have the same gradient then that means that the two lines are parallel to each other.
4) No [OPTION B]
Two lines are perpendicular if their gradients multiply to give - 1 and as such one is the negative reciprocal of the other. Since both gradients are ¹/₂ then they are actually parallel and not perpendicular.
Answer: (5+√2) and (3+√2)
Step-by-step explanation: Let (5+√2) and (3+√2) be two irrational numbers
Difference = (5+√2) - (3+√2)
Difference = 2
2 is a rational number
A I am pretty sure. I apologize if I am incorrect.
To answer this you need to find the probability that it is 18 first. The only way to get 18 is by rolling 3 6's. The probability of each 6 is 1/6. 1/6 * 1/6 * 1/6= 0.0046. That is the probability of rolling 3 die and getting 18. To get the actual answer, you just subtract that from 1
1-0.0046 equals 0.9954
