Factoring the cubic you get: <span>(x - 2)^2 (x-4) , so we know the multiplicity is the amount of times a root shows in an equation because the equation (x-2) has a exponent of 2 that means the root 2 has a multiplicity of 2.</span>
Answer: 2

The least common multiple of two numbers is 3780, and the greatest common divisor is 18. given that one of the numbers is 180, w
garri49 [273]
<span>To solve these GCF and LCM problems, factor the numbers you're working with into primes: 
3780 = 2*2*3*3*3*5*7
180 = 2*2*3*3*5 
</span><span>We know that the LCM of the two numbers, call them A and B, = 3780 and that A = 180. The greatest common factor of 180 and B = 18 so B has factors 2*3*3 in common with 180 but no other factors in common with 180. So, B has no more 2's and no 5's
</span><span>Now, LCM(180,B) = 3780. So, A or B must have each of the factors of 3780. B needs another factor of 3 and a factor of 7 since LCM(A,B) needs for either A or B to have a factor of 2*2, which A has, and a factor of 3*3*3, which B will have with another factor of 3, and a factor of 7, which B will have. 
So, B = 2*3*3*3*7 = 378.</span>

Solve this system of equations. y = 5x +20 and y = -2x -8
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

y = 0

x = -4

( x, y ) = ( -4 , 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 20

y = -2x - 8

Substitute

5x + 20 = -2x - 8

Add 8 on both sides

5x + 20 + 8 = -2x - 8 + 8

5x + 28 = -2x

Subtract 5x on both sides

5x - 5x + 28 = -2x - 5x

28 = -7x

Divide by -7 on both sides

28/-7 = -7x/-7

-4 = x

Now that you have x, you can substitute it in one of the equations that was given to find the value of y.

y = 5x + 20

y = 5(-4) + 20

y = -20 + 20

y = 0

Or....

y = -2x - 8

y = -2(-4) - 8

y = 8 - 8

y = 0

They will both be 0 no matter what

Point form = ( -4, 0 )

Hope this helped
