Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

1260=22*32*5*7

 60=22*3*5

Therefore we need the smallest number divisible by seven and nine, which is 7*9=63.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

LCM(a,b) = 20160, a=60

find:

smallest possible value of b

solution;

60, b = 20,160

b = 20,160 / 60

b = 336

60 x 336 = 20,160

= 2⁶ x 3² x 5 x 7

= (2² x 3 x 5) x (2⁴ x 3 x 7)

= (60) x (336)

LCM(60,336) = 1680

consider the 2² x 3 to get the prime number:

= 336 x 12

= 4032

therefore,

LCM(60,4032) = 20160

Use the formula d =rt to find the distance d a long distance runner can run at a rate r of 9 1/2 miles per hour for time t of 1
shtirl [24]
D=rt
So you're going to plug in the values listed: r= 9 1/2 and t=1 3/4

This will give you:
d=(9.5)(1.75)

Then you solve:
d=16.625

You should probably convert that decimal answer into a fraction since you're question gave it to you as a fraction.

What are the factors of expression (y-3)(x+7)
torisob [31]
That is easy!! :)
y=3 and x=-7

When you find the factors of something like this, you have to just get the letter alone.

For example: y-3. You have to first write it as y-3=0, then you add 3 from BOTH sides of the = so that you can make the -3 go away and y will be alone. So, it will look like this: y-3+3=0+3. Then, you solve it for y (which just means that you want y by itself on one side of the = ). So, -3+3=0, which means they disappear from that side; since 0+3=3, that's what that side turns into, so what you end up with is y=3

Same thing goes for the x+7 equation:
x+7=0
x+7-7=0-7
x=-7
