The answer is a 24 <span>Method
The LCM of 6 and 8 is 24, which is the multiple of the highest power of all prime factors from both numbers
6 = 2 x 3
8 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 23 x 3
Highest multiple of 2 = 23 = 8
Highest multiple of 3 = 3

(23 x 3 = 8 x 3 = 24).

Small Numbers Method (trial and error)
Start listing the multiples
6 multiples- 6, 12, 18, 24
8 multiples- 8, 16, 24
The LCM of 8 and 6 is 24.

Answer:

non-linear and increasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know it is non-linear simply because it is not a straight line. And the numbers in the equations tell us it is increasing not deceasing.

Answer:

$y$

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line passes through (0,1) and (2,-2).

Equation of a straight line passing through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

is given by:

$y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1})$

$y-1=\frac{-2-1}{2-0}(x-0)$

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1$

Everything to the left of the line is shaded.

We have to visualize the graph:the straight line has a positive y-intercept and a negative slope.The graph is given in the attachment below.

From the figure we can see origin lies on the shaded region.Hence (0,0) should satisfy the inequality.

LHS=y=0

RHS= $-\frac{3x}{2}+1=1\ (x=0)$

LHS<RHS as 0<1

Hence , the inequality is:

$y$
