Answer:

1200

Step-by-step explanation:

We’ll need a number that is evenly dividable by all three values: 8,12 & 15. We can develop the generic common multiple by multiplying all three numbers and get 1440. But is that the smallest common multiple? The quick and dirty way to factor the number is to divide it by it’s various elements and see what works. In this case 1440/12=120 which is the smallest common multiple of the three numbers. The smallest length is therefore 120.

In order to find how many bricks just divide (120x120x120)/(8x12x15)=1200 bricks

How do properties of integer exponents help you write equivalent expressions
olga55 [171]

When writing equivalent expressions, there are often several possible orders in which to simplify them. However, they will all take you to the same result as long as you do not make a mistake when using the properties. In this example, you will distribute the outer exponent first using the Power of a Product Property.

Find the slope of the line passions through the points(-6,3) and (-6,-1)
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The slope of this line would be undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the slope of any line, use the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - -1)/(-6 - -6)

m = (3 + 1)/(-6 + 6)

m = 4/0

Since we cannot divide by 0, then we know the slope is undefined.

Which step should be completed first in the following problem 4(27÷3²)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

3²

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use BPEMDAS Order of Operations:

B - Brackets

P - Parenthesis

E - Exponents

M - Multiply

D - Divide

A - Addition

S - Subtraction

We use this order left to right. Since we have parenthesis, we look at that first. Inside, we have division and exponents. Since exponents come first, we have to evaluate 3² first.
