Let's represent the two numbers by x and y. Then xy=60. The smaller number here is x=y-7.
Then (y-7)y=60, or y^2 - 7y - 60 = 0. Use the quadratic formula to (1) determine whether y has real values and (2) to determine those values if they are real:
discriminant = b^2 - 4ac; here the discriminant is (-7)^2 - 4(1)(-60) = 191. Because the discriminant is positive, this equation has two real, unequal roots, which are
-(-7) + sqrt(191)
y = -------------------------
-2(1)
and
-(-7) - sqrt(191)
y = ------------------------- = 3.41 (approximately)
-2(1)
Unfortunately, this doesn't make sense, since the LCM of two numbers is generally an integer.
Try thinking this way: If the LCM is 60, then xy = 60. What would happen if x=5 and y=12? Is xy = 60? Yes. Is 5 seven less than 12? Yes.

=Thirty billion, eight hundred ninety-one million, five hundred seventy-seven thousand, six hundred.
the answer was kind of in the question btw :)
WE KNOW THAT THE VOLUME OF THE CUBE IS '
V=a^3
our a=7
V=343 cm^3
Answer:
9.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The shape is a triangle, the 11 ft is your hypotenuse
You need to use the Pythagorean Theorem!
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (solve for a, the missing length that they ask for)
so --->
a^2 + (6^2) = 11^2
a^2 + 36 = 121
~subtract 36 to the right side~
a^2 = 85
now find the square root of 85:
a = 9.21954
round it to the nearest tenth:
a = 9.2
final answer: 9.2 ft
hope this helpsss
