Answer:

The lcm (least common multiple) of 4 and 12 is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the prime factorization of 4

4 = 2 × 2

Find the prime factorization of 12

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

Multiply each factor the greater number of times it occurs in steps i) or ii) above to find the LCM:

LCM = 2 × 2 × 3

LCM = 12

If a line has a slope of 2 and contains the point (-2,1), what is its equation in point-slope form?

kondaur [170]

The equation for slope is y=mx+b. slope is m. 2 is the slope. so you know the m part of the equation is 2. just by eliminating the answers that don’t have 2 as the slope, A is your answer.
