Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say we wanted to find the LCM of 6 and 8.

First, write the prime factorization of both:

6 = 2×3

8 = 2³

Let's include all the exponents:

6 = 2¹×3¹

8 = 2³×3⁰

The LCM needs to have the prime factors with the highest exponents.  

So we need prime factors of 2 and 3.  The exponent of the 2 will be three, and the exponent of the 3 will be one.

LCM = 2³×3¹

LCM = 24

Which relation is a function?<br> Can Sb help please
nikitadnepr [17]

A relation is a function if you associate exactly one output for every input. This means that, when you choose a value for x, there must be only one correspondent value for y. This only happens in the top-right parabola.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

b =0

Step-by-step explanation:

The only value where  |b| = -b  is when b=0

|0| = -0

0 = 0

Absolute value means non- negative

non-negative = negative
