Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can actually use a diagram. This is when you list similar things and different ones in sections. When you find the prime factorization of 12 and 16...

2,2,3

2,2,2,2

As you can see, 4 is the greatest common factor. You can drop one 4 and keep the other.

Then, your list should look like this:

4,3

2,2

Once your list is organized, you can multiply to find you least common multiple.

2*2*4*3=64

The new ranking functions make it easy to include a column in a result set that provides the sequential ranking number of each r

arlik [135]

Answer:

Partition

Step-by-step explanation:

Partition in mathematics is a way of calculating maths problems that involve enormous numbers by halving or ranking them into smaller units so they’re straightforward to work with. For instance, rather than adding up digits in a column,

+32

118

You can rank these numbers into units, like this…

80 + 6 + 30 + 2

Rearrange and the tens up

80+30+6+2=118

Determine if the two lines are perpendicular. Explain how you know by calculating the slopes and comparing the slopes in 2-3 sen

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The two lines are not perpendicular because the product of their slopes is not equal to -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the slopes of the perpendicular line is -1

That means one of them is and additive and multiplicative inverse of the other

If the slope of one of them is m, then reciprocal m and change its sign, then the slope of the perpendicular is $-\frac{1}{m}$
The formula of the slope is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Let us find from the graph two points lie on each line and calculate the slopes of them and then find its product if the product is -1, then the two lines are perpendicular

From the graph

∵ The red line passes through points (4 , 0) and (0 , 8)

∴ $x_{1}$ = 4 and $x_{2}$ = 0

∴ $y_{1}$ = 0 and $y_{2}$ = 8

∵ $m=\frac{8-0}{0-4}=\frac{8}{-4}=-2$

∴ The slope of the red line is -2

∵ The blue line passes through points (5 , 5) and (0 , -5)

∴ $x_{1}$ = 5 and $x_{2}$ = 0

∴ $y_{1}$ = 5 and $y_{2}$ = -5

∵ $m=\frac{-5-5}{0-5}=\frac{-10}{-5}=2$

∴ The slope of the blue line is 2

∵ The products of the slopes of the two lines = -2 × 2 = -4

∴ The product of the slopes of the lines not equal -1

∴ The two lines are not perpendicular

A researcher is interested in attitudes towards releasing prisoners with Alzheimer's who have a life sentence. 85 randomly selec

goblinko [34]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The matching of the vocabulary word with its corresponding example is shown below:-

a. Data - The list of answers that the 85 Americans give.

Data refers the information that is to be collected.

b. Variable - The answer "Strongly Agree" or "Agree" or "Disagree" or "Strongly disagree".

Variable refers the changes of the expression according to the context.

c. Parameter - The proportion of all Americans who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who has Alzheimer's should be released.

A parameter is a quantity that affects a mathematical object's production or behavior, but is considered constant

d. Statistics - The proportion of 85 Americans surveyed who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who has Alzheimer's should be released.

Statistics is a field of mathematics involved in data collection, organisation and analysis.

e. Sample - The 85 Americans who participated in the survey.

A sample is the result of an experiment on randomly.

f. Population - All Americans

Population refers to the number of the public.
