HCF(320, x) = 20, LCM(320, x) = 2240, then x =

Mathematics

HACTEHA [7]3 years ago

Answer:

  140

Step-by-step explanation:

When working HCF and LCM problems, I like to think in terms of this little diagram:

  (a [ b ) c]

It shows me one of the numbers is ab, the other is bc, the HCF is b and the LCM is abc. "a" and "c" must be relatively prime for "b" to be the HCF.

__

Here, we're given ...

  b = 20

  ab = 320

  abc = 2240

Then ...

  c = abc/(ab) = 2240/320 = 7

  x = bc = 20(7) . . . . . . equivalently, x = (abc·b)/(ab) = (2240·20)/320

  x = 140

Erica bought 3 1/2 yards of fabric if she uses 2/3 of the fabric how much will she have left?
RoseWind [281]
First, convert 3 1/2 into an improper fraction, which is 7/2. Now, you have to make sure both sides have a common denominator. This will be 6. So now the equation is 21/6 - 4/6. Subtract the numerators, which is 17. Keep the denominator, however. Now, simplify. You new answer will be 2 5/6.

Nine fewer than half a number is five more than four times the number. Define a variable, write an equation, and solve to find t
nignag [31]
N = the number

0.5n - 9 = 4n + 5
(0.5n - 0.5n) - 9 = (4n - 0.5n) + 5
-9 = 3.5n + 5
(-9 - 5) = 3.5n + (5 - 5)
-14 = 3.5n
-14/3.5 = 3.5n/3.5
-4 = n

The number is -4.

​ y=3x+3 y=−2x+3 ​ how many solutions does the system have
allochka39001 [22]

Answer: One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 3

y = -2x + 3

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

To solve this, you need to understand a few things:

a) If two lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, they are parallel when graphed and thus do not have any solutions

b) If two lines have the same slope and same y-intercepts, they are the same line when graphed and thus do not have infinitely many solutions

c) If two lines have different slopes (and/or y-intercepts), they have one solution

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

These two lines have different slopes but the same y-intercept (condition c)

So they have one solution
