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

A quadratic equation is an equation whose leading coefficient is of the second degree. The correct options are A, B, and E.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an equation whose leading coefficient is of second degree also the equation has only one unknown while it has 3 unknown numbers. It is written in the form of ax²+bx+c. The Roots of the quadratic equation:

x = \dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The complete question is:

Patel is solving 8x2 + 16x + 3 = 0. Which steps could he use to solve the quadratic equation? Select three options.

8(x2 + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8

x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot

x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 4 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot

8(x2 + 2x + 1) = 3 + 1

8(x2 + 2x) = –3

If we simplify the given options, then the option that is correct is,

A.) 8(x² + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8

     8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

B.) 8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

x = \dfrac{-16\pm\sqrt{16^2-4(8)(3)}}{2(8)}\\\\x = -1 \pm \dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{4}\\\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{16}}\\\\x= -1 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{5}{8}}

E.) 8(x² + 2x) = –3

8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

Hence, the correct options are A, B, and E.

What is the value of x in the equation 3x-1/9=18 when y equals 27
anygoal [31]

Answer: 163/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x + -1/9 = 18

Step 2: Add 1/9 to both sides.

3x + -1/9 + 1/9 + = 18 + 1/9

3x = 163/9

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3 = 163/9 over 3

x = 163/27

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-1, 4) and is parallel
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y + 2x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 2x + y = 1

We must first write the equation in the general form above

That's

y = - 2x + 1

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 2

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 2

So the equation of the line using point

( - 1 , 4) and slope - 2 is

<h3>y - 4 =  - 2(x + 1) \\ y - 4 =  - 2x - 2 \\ y + 2x =  - 2 + 4</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y + 2x = 2</h3>

Hope this helps you
