If they're integers, that means they can't be fractions (such as 15/2 and 2).
So the only couples of integers that, when multiplied, result in 15 are:
1 and 15
5 and 3.
(there are no other possibilities as both 5 and 3 are not divisible further).
The smaller of the two sums (15+1; 5+3) is 5+3=8.
The least possible sum of a and b is 8.
Answer: 0.01803155522
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3/4 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Lightest: 3 3/4
Heaviest: 4 1/2 = 4 2/4
4 2/4 - 3 3/4 = 18/4 - 15/4 = 3/4
First, combine the like terms:
-x+8=3
Then, isolate x:
-x=-5
Then, divide by -1:
x=5
Answer:
line of reflection was across the -2 line on the x-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
the y points on all of the given points are the same distance from each other to the -2 line. (ie. (-5,2) and (-5,-6) = the 2 is 4 places away from -2 and -6 is 4 places away from -2.) making the reflection point -2 because it is the halfway point for all y values. It is on the x-axis because it is said it is a horizontal line. If it was vertical it would be on the y-axis.
