The least common multiple of two numbers is 12. the sum of the two numbers is 10. what are the numbers? ? and ?

1 answer:

7 0

Hmm, the 2 numbers are most likely whole numbers
find what adds to 10 and find teh LCM

1 and 9, LCM is 9, nope
2 and 5, LCM is 10, nope
3 and 7, LCM is 21, nope
4 and 6, LCM is 12, yep

the nmbers are 4 and 6

Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (06.01) Solve 2x + 5y = −13 3x − 4y = −8 (4, 1) (−4, 1) (4, −1) (−4, −1)

dlinn [17]

ANSWER

The solution is
$(-4,-1)$

EXPLANATION

The given equations are:

$2x + 5y = - 13...(1)$

and

$3x - 4y = - 8...(2)$

We multiply equation 1 by 3 to get,

$6x + 15y = - 39...(3)$

We multiply equation 2 also by 2 to get,

$6x - 8y = - 16...(4)$

We subtract equation 4 from equation 3 to get,

$23y = - 23$
This implies that,

$y = - 1$

We put this value of y into any of the equations say equation 2

$3x - 4( - 1) = - 8$
Simplify

$3x + 4 = - 8$
Group like terms
$3x = - 8 - 4$
Simplify,

$3x = - 12$

Divide both sides by 3 to get,

$x = - 4$

Therefore the solution is
$(-4,-1)$

The correct answer is option D.

What type of circuit measurement is made by placing a meter’s test leads in parallel with a deenergized component?

sladkih [1.3K]

The answer is that you are measuring "resistance".

If the segment is DE-energized, which means the entire device is shut down, at that point the main thing you can quantify with the meter- probes on the two ends of the segment is its resistance. The ordinary meter measures volts, amps, and ohms. If you touch
the probes to the two ends of the part and the circuit is empowered, at that point you measure the voltage over the component. If the circuit is DE-energized, at that point you are measuring the component's resistance.
