The highest common multiple???  That would be infinity...

Highest common factor?  That would be the product of shared primes of the numbers prime factorization...

16=2*2*2*2, 24=2*2*2*3 so the product of shared primes is 2^3=8

So 8 would be the greatest common factor

Least common multiple?

That would be the product of the highest occurring primes in their prime factorization...

16=2*2*2*2, 24=2*2*2*3 so the product of highest occurring primes is:

2*2*2*2*3=48

So 48 would be the least common multiple....

The "highest common multiple" would be 48n where n would approach infinity so it would be +oo

The highest common multiple of 16 and 24 is 48.
3 x 16 = 48
2 x 24 = 48

Determine the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line parallel to y = x + 11 that passes through the point (–6, 2). y =
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

y = x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel => <u><em>This means it has the same slope as this one.</em></u>

Slope = m = 1

Now,

Point = (x,y) = (-6,2)

So, x = -6, y = 2

<u><em>Putting this in slope intercept form to get b</em></u>

y = mx+b

=> 2 = (1)(-6) + b

=> b = 2+6

=> b = 8

<u><em>Now putting m and b in the slope-intercept form to get the required equation:</em></u>

=> y = mx+b

=> y = x+12

Find the slope of every line that is perpendicular<br> to this one
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this line is -1 or -1/1, and to find the perpendicular slope you find the opposite of the reciprocal, which in this case would be 1/1 which simplifies to 1.

These box plots show daily low temperatures for a sample of days in two
Mumz [18]

Answer:

C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for

town B is negatively skewed.

Step-by-step Explanation:

From the box plots attached in the diagram below, which shows data of low temperatures for town A and town B for some days, we can compare the shapes of the box plot by visually analysing both box plots and how the data for each town is distributed.

=> For town A, the shape of the box plot is symmetric because both quartiles seem equal, and the median also divides the rectangular box into two equal halves. Both whiskers also appear to be of equal lengths.

The box plot for Town A takes a symmetric shape, and this shows a typical normal distribution of data.

=> On the other hand, Town B data distribution is different. The median seem close to the top half of the box and does not divide the box into equal halves. This shows the distribution is skewed. Since the whisker is shorter from the upper end of the box to the left side, we can infer that the distribution for Town B is skewed to the left, and it is negatively skewed.

=> The right comparison of the shapes of the box plots is "C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for town B is negatively skewed."

Sara makes and sells bracelets. She bought material for $28.50 and used it all to make 15 bracelets. Sara used the equation to d
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Sara should sell each bracelet at <em>$8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

Total cost = $28.50

Total bracelets to be made = 15

Total profit to be made = $99

Let x be the price at which Sara sells each bracelet to make a profit of $99.

\text{Total sales done = Number of bracelets sold }\times \text{ Sales price of each bracelet}\\

\Rightarrow 15 \times x    ...... (1)

Also,

\text{Total sales price = Total Cost}+ \text{Total Profit} \\

\Rightarrow \$28.50 + \$99 ....... (2)

Equating (1) and (2):

\Rightarrow  28.50 + 99 = 15x\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{127.5}{15}\\\Rightarrow x = $8.50

Sara should <em>sell each bracelet at $8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.

Suppose x represents an objects weight on Earth. Write two expressions: one that you can use to find the objects weight on Mars
tatyana61 [14]
The weight of an object is the product of its mass and the acceleration of gravity.
If g[e] is the acceleration of gravity on earth, and g[M] the same for Mars and g[m] the same for the moon,
then m[M]=m[e]g[M]/g[e] and m[m]=m[e]g[m]/g[e] where m[ ] denotes mass. Note that weight=mg (measured in newtons) while mass is in kilograms.
If g[M]=g[e]/3 and g[m]=g[e]/6 approximately. Then the weight of an object on Mars will be about a third of what it is on earth, while on the moon it would be about a sixth of what it is on earth.
