The answer is 240

Explanation: The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is the smallest number that two or more numbers will divide into evenly. NOTE: to find LCM you first need to know how to find GCD.

First we will find LCM for first two numbers ( 16 and24 ).

Step 1: Find the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor ) of 16 and 24 which is 8.

Step 2: Multiply the numbers 16 and 24 together ( 16 * 24 = 384 )

Step 3: Divide the 384 with 8. (384/8 = 48)

So, the LCM of 16 and 24 is 48.

Now we will find the LCM of above result (48) and third number ( 40 ) using the same procedure.

The result of this part is 240

Answer:

16) $y=\frac{1}{4}x +5$

17) y = -x - 4

18) y = -2x - 1

19) y = -2x

20) $y=\frac{-5}{3} -3$

Step-by-step explanation:

With the two points you find the slope using $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Then using that slope, plug the slope in with one of the points values of x and y into the point slope formula, and smiplify that into the y-intercept formula.

Consider this system of equations. Which equation represents the first equation written in slope-intercept form?

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

y= 5/2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2y = 10

-5x -5x (Subtract both sides by 5x to leave y by itself)

-2y = -5x + 10

-2y/-2 = -5/-2 + 10/-2

(Divide both sides by -2 to leave y with no coefficient. -5/-2 = 5/2 because there are two negatives. 10/-2 = -5.

y = 5/2 - 5

The initial population of a town is 3600, and it grows with a doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in 8 year

shutvik [7]

If is doubles in 10 years, then you should divide 2 by 10 to get the yearly growth rate equaling 1/5. Multiply 1/5 by 8 equals 8/5= 1 3/5. multiply that number by 3600, giving you 5,760.

locksmith larry charges $90 for a house cal plus $20 per hour. Locksmith Barry charges $50 for a house call plus $30 per house.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations :

Larry : y = 20x + 90

Barry : y = 30x + 50

Equate both to find the number of hours at which they both charge the same :

20x + 90 = 30x + 50
30x - 20x = 90 - 50
10x = 40
x = 4 hours

The question is below thanks

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

FH ~ 10.02

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

One should first find the circumference of the given circle. Then one should find how large the fraction of the circumference one is supposed to find is. Finally, one should multiply the fraction of the circumference one is supposed to find by the total circumference.

2. Circumference of the circle

The formula for circumference is;

$2r$ π

Substitute in the given values;

It is given that the radius is, hence

2 (7) π

14π

3. Find the fraction of the circumference one is supposed to find

It is given that the angles over the measure of the total degrees of angles in a circle are equal to the arc surrounding the angles of the circumference. Essentially;

$\frac{angles}{360}=\frac{arc}{circumference}$

Substitute in the given information and solve;

$\frac{82}{360}=\frac{arc}{14pi}$

arc = $\frac{41}{180}*14pi$

arc = $\frac{287}{90}*pi$

arc ~ 10.02
