three tanks are capable of holding 108 litres, 168 litres and 180 litres of milk. determine the capacity of the greatest vessel

A vessel of 7,560 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

This means finding the Least Common Multiple for;

108 168 180

We begin by finding the multiples of each number;

Multiples of 108:

108, 216, 324, 432, 540, 648, 756, 864, 972, 1080, 1188, 1296, 1404, 1512, 1620, 1728, 1836, 1944, 2052, 2160, 2268, 2376, 2484, 2592, 2700, 2808, 2916, 3024, 3132, 3240, 3348, 3456, 3564, 3672, 3780, 3888, 3996, 4104, 4212, 4320, 4428, 4536, 4644, 4752, 4860, 4968, 5076, 5184, 5292, 5400, 5508, 5616, 5724, 5832, 5940, 6048, 6156, 6264, 6372, 6480, 6588, 6696, 6804, 6912, 7020, 7128, 7236, 7344, 7452, <u>7560</u>, 7668, 7776

Multiples of 168:

168, 336, 504, 672, 840, 1008, 1176, 1344, 1512, 1680, 1848, 2016, 2184, 2352, 2520, 2688, 2856, 3024, 3192, 3360, 3528, 3696, 3864, 4032, 4200, 4368, 4536, 4704, 4872, 5040, 5208, 5376, 5544, 5712, 5880, 6048, 6216, 6384, 6552, 6720, 6888, 7056, 7224, 7392, <u>7560</u>, 7728, 7896

Multiples of 180:

180, 360, 540, 720, 900, 1080, 1260, 1440, 1620, 1800, 1980, 2160, 2340, 2520, 2700, 2880, 3060, 3240, 3420, 3600, 3780, 3960, 4140, 4320, 4500, 4680, 4860, 5040, 5220, 5400, 5580, 5760, 5940, 6120, 6300, 6480, 6660, 6840, 7020, 7200, 7380, <u>7560</u>, 7740, 7920

The Least Common Multiple for the 3 number is;

= 7560

Therefore a vessel of 7,560 liters fills each one of them an exact number of times with no remainder.

Graph the function, identify if it represents exponential growth or decay, and identify domain and range. See picture

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

a. Decay

b. 0.5

c. 4

Explanation:

If we have a function of the form

$y=ab^x$

then

a = intital amount

b = growth / decay rate factor

x = time interval

If b > 1; then the equation is modelling growth. If b < 0, then the equation is modelling decay.

Now in our case, we have

$y=4(\frac{1}{2})^x$

Here we see that

inital amount = a = 4

b = 1/ 2 < 0, meaning the function is modeling decay

decay factor = b = 1/2

Therefore, the answers are

a. Decay

b. 0.5

c. 4

I need help with linear regression

frutty [35]

Answer:

<em>In statistics, linear regression is a linear approach to modelling the relationship between a scalar response (or dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables). The case of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression. For more than one explanatory variable, the process is called multiple linear regression. This term is distinct from multivariate linear regression, where multiple correlated dependent variables are predicted, rather than a single scalar variable.</em>
