Answer:
I would rather use their multiples.
Step-by-step explanation:
With 13 and 14, neither number has many factors (and few prime factors, for that matter) so factoring would be pretty much useless. If you wanted to use the prime factors of 14 (7 and 2) multiplying either of them by 13 would not give you the LCM. Actually the LCM is just 13*14 which is 182.
Good luck!
It would help if you had a four quadrant graph, but the distance would be (8,11).
Answer:
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the number of containers
y is the total cost
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
For the cost of both companies to be the same, then
24x + 42 = 28x + 25
28x - 24x = 42 - 25
4x = 17
x = 4.25
Mr Lycan would have to order about 4 containers so the cost would be the same from each company
Eight is the greatest common factor because it is the last of the numbers that can go into both of those numbers.
