Answer:
B. All real numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 1) = 2x + 2
Distribute the 2 inside the parenthesis.
2x + 2 = 2x + 2
Since the two expressions are equal and will stay equal with any value, the answer to this question is All real numbers.
Example:
2(x + 1) = 2x + 2
2(5 + 1) = 2(5) + 2
2(6) = 10 + 2
12 = 12
2(x + 1) = 2x + 2
2(150 + 1) = 2(150) + 2
2(151) = 300 + 2
302 = 302
The expression is equal for any value put in x.
Answer:
0. 542
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Put these numbers into their prime factors.
18: 2 * 3 * 3
27: 3 * 3 * 3
12: 2 * 2 * 3
The LCM must have
two 2s
Three 3s
That's it
2*2 * 3 * 3 * 3
LCM = 108
648 might be a multiple of the three, but it's not the smallest one.
108 = 27 * 4
108 = 18 * 6
108 = 12 * 9
