<span>Least Common Denominator (LCD) is the least number which all the denominators can divide without remainder. The given denominators are 2, 16 and 8. The least number 2, 16 and 8 will divide without remainder is 16. Therefore, to express the fractions 1/2, 3/12, and 7/8 with an LCD, we multiply both the numerator and the denominator of each of the fractions with a common factor that makes the denominator to be 16. Therefore, 1/2, 3/16 and 7/8 expressed with an LCD are (1 x 8) / (2 x 8), 3/16, (7 x 2) / (8 x 2) = 8/16, 3/16, and 14/16.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Replace F(x) with y.
2. Interchange x and y in y = 2x + 1: x = 2y + 1
3. Solve this result for y: 2y = x - 1, or y = (x - 1)/2
4. Replace y with:
-1
F (x):
-1 x - 1
F (x) = -----------
2
I think the answer to m is 8
