The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.

The least common multiple of two numbers is the lowest value number that is a multiple of both the numbers. To find the least common multiple of 3 and 8, you first list their multiples:

Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24...

Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56...

When you compare the two lists of multiples, you can see that the number 24 is the lowest number that is a multiple of both 3 and 8, so it is their LCM, or least common multiple.

Use the quadratic formula to solve x² + 9x + 10 = 0.<br><br> What are the solutions to the equation?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

-1.30\ and\ -7.70 (2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Formula: x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

-----------------------------------------------

x^2+9x+10=0

Plug in values:

x=\frac{-9\pm \sqrt{9^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:10}}{2\cdot \:1}

First value of x:

x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{2}=-1.30 (2 decimal places)

Second value of x:

x=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{2}=-7.70 (2 decimal places)

To show this number using scientific notation, you will look at where the decimal point is and imagine that in the original number.  Then count the number of place values to the right of this.  That will be the exponent that belongs with the 10 because that is how many place values (groups of 10s) the number has past the decimal point.

The answer is 3.31 x 10^26 light years.  ^ means to the power of.
