Answer:
I would say if you at least try to make it then you will end up making it
Step-by-step explanation:
Find all the prime factors of the three numbers. pick up the common factors, ONCE, then pick up the non-common factors one by one, multiply the factors, the product is the least common factor.
example: the least common multiple of 6, 8, and 15
6=2*3
8=2*2*2
15=3*5
Note: do not write 8 into 4*2, because 4 is not a prime number. you have to break the number down to prime factors only.
Notice that 6 and 8 have a common factor 2, so pick up the 2;
6 and 15 have a common factor of 3, so pick up the 3.
those are the only two shared factors, so 2×3
now pick up whatever is not shared:
the two 2s for 8 and the 5 for 15 is not shared, add 2, 2, and 5 to the multiplication: 2×3×2×2×5=120
120 is the least common multiples of 6,8, and 15
this is basically how it is done. I believe you can explain better in your own words.

Answer:
y = 2x -6
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (-4 -2)/(1 -4) = -6/-3 = 2
The y-intercept is given by ...
b = y -mx
b = 2 -2(4) = -6
The equation in slope-intercept form is ...
y = mx +b . . . . . line with slope m and y-intercept b
y = 2x -6
