The value of x according to the given task is; 12.

<h3>What is the value of x?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the value of x is to be determined.

Since, lines AB and BC are both tangent to the circle and they both share a point of intersection; it follows that;

5x = 3x +24

  • collect like terms

2x = 24

  • divide both sides by 2

x = 24/2

x = 12.

Which of the following expressions represents the least common multiple of 15, 18, and 25?
Virty [35]

Answer:

(2)(3^2)(5^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Least Common Multiple</u> (LCM) of a group of numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers.

we have

15,18 and 25

Decompose the numbers in prime factors

15=(3)(5)

18=(2)(3^2)

25=(5^2)

Multiply common and uncommon numbers with their greatest exponent

so

The LCM is equal to

LCM=(2)(3^2)(5^2)

LCM=450
