well It never could be less than both numbers.
the LCM of 2 numbers shd either be greater than the 2 numbers .... or the answer should be equal to either one of the numbers ...
lets see some examples to prove this conclusion:
now, lets find the LCM of 2 and 6 ... so if we do it ... we get the answer 6 .. which is ..as we said equal to one of the numbers
another example : 5 and 7 ... in this ... if we do it .. .we get the LCM as 37 ... which is greater than both the numbers
another case where both the numbers are same ....
where we need to find the LCM of 7 and 7 ... the answer will be 7 itself .....
<span>It looks like you're supposed to pick a combination of two answers:
an absolute-value inequality, and
a sentence describing the meaning of that inequality.
We've got two choices for each, and therefore four possible combinations of choices.
First, let's tackle the sentence description. We're told that
"it [the cost] could differ [from the average of $32] as much as $8."
That sets a maximum value for the difference; it's UP TO $8.
If the cost is less than average, it could be as little as
$32 - $8 = $24
and if the cost is more than average, it could be as much as
$32 + $8 = $40.
So the medication costs range from $24 to $40, and we want an answer that states that.
Now for the inequalities:
|x - 32| describes the SIZE of the difference. Using the absolute-value function means we don't distinguish between
x - 32
and
32 - x
as far as our interests are concerned; we eliminate the sign from the subtraction and just look at the size of the difference.
But in the case we're looking at, we've got a MAXIMUM value for the difference; it can't be more than 8. The inequality
|x - 32| ≥ 8
says the difference is 8 or MORE, so we don't want that. Instead, we want
|x - 32| ≤ 8
which says the difference is anywhere from 0 to 8.
Combining these conclusions, we see we're looking for this answer:
|x - 32| ≤ 8; The medication costs range from $24 to $40
which is the third one listed.</span>
Let c represent the cost and r represent the number of rooms, then
a.) c = 22r
b.) 200 = 22r
r = 200/22 = 9.09 ≈ 9 rooms
c.) 200 - 40 = 22r
r = 160/22 = 7.27 ≈ 7 rooms
No it is not because it does not have a line over the numbers meaning that it doesn’t keep going
The correct answer is H=5
141.3/3.14/3²=5
