Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this by first finding the prime factors of the numbers.

For example, find the LCD of 12 and 16:

12 = 2 * 2 * 3

16 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

There are 2 pairs of 2's in the list so only 2 of these four are included in the calculation. All other factors are included.

The LCD is:

2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3

= 16*3

= 48.

Find the LCD of 3 and 6

6 = 2 * 3

3 = 3

- so only one of the 3's is included:

LCD = 2*3 = 6.

Answer:

to find the least common denominator list out the multiples of both denominator until you find the smallest multiple that is shared by both

4: 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,

7:14,21,28,35,

because 28 is the first shared multiple of 4 and 7,it most be the least common denominator for these two fractions.

Analyzing a Graph In Exercise, analyze and sketch the graph of the function. Lable any relative extrema, points of inflection, a

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Analyzed and Sketched.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $y=\frac{\ln\left(5x)}{x^2}$

To sketch the graph we need to find 2 components.

1) First derivative of y with respect to x to determine the interval where function increases and decreases.

2) Second derivative of y with respect to x to determine the interval where function is concave up and concave down.

$y'=\frac{1-2\ln\left(5x)}{x^3}=0$

$x = \sqrt e/5$ is absolute maximum

$y''=\frac{6\ln\left(5x)-5}{x^4}=0$

$x=e^{5/6}/5$ is the point concavity changes from down to up.

Here, x = 0 is vertical asymptote and y = 0 is horizontal asymptote.

The graph is given in the attachment.

Is 15 kilometers equivalent to 1,500,000 centimeters

Ann [662]

Hi
Yes 15 kilometers is 1500000 cm

This is because in metric conversion, you multiply by ten each time you convert to the next unit.

Heres a useful way to remember

K ing (kilo)
H enry (hecto)
D oesn't (deca)
U sually (unit) <-metre, litre ect.
D rink ( deci)
C hocolate (centi)
M ilk (milli)

juan needs to measure 6 cups of flour for a recipe.he only has a 1/4 cup measuring cup.how many times must he fill the measuring

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Juan would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 24 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to measure one cup of flour with a 1/4 measuring cup, you would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 4 times. Since we want 6 cups, you would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 24 times. 6 times 4 = 24. Hope this helps!
