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

1.Find the zeros of f(x) = x2 - 9
Marat540 [252]
So for the first one it is (x-3)(x+3) this is because it is a difference of squares so you square root the 9 and the minus you do both +and - in order to keep up the -9
The zeros are:x=3 and x=-3 ( this is because you change the sign in the bracket


the others should be pretty simple to do for number 2 its a complex
the third is a simple trinomial
and fourth is simple trinomial as well

There are 32 students in Jenna's class. Jenna brought in 14 cupcakes. Which equation can be used to find the number of cupcakes
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

n = 32 - 14  (= 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

You haven't given the answer options, however I assume it will be written in this form. I.e. the number of cupcakes still needed is just the total number of students (32) minus the number that Jenna bought (14).

so n = 32 -14 (=18)
