Answer: none of those, 276...?

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the least common denominator (LCD) of 12 and 23 if you want to add or subtract two fractions with 12 and 23 as denominators.

The least common denominator, also called lowest common denominator (LCD), of 12 and 23 is 276.

Here is a math problem example where you need to know the LCD of 12 and 23 to solve:

3/12 + 2/23 = ?

Step 1) Take the LCD and divide each denominator by it as follows:

276/12 = 23

276/23 = 12

Step 2) Multiply each nominator with the respective answers from Step 1:

3 x 23 = 69

2 x 12 = 24

Step 3) Put it all together to solve the problem:

69/276 + 24/276 = 93/276

= 3/12 + 2/23 = 93/276

It's that easy! Once again, the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 12 and 23 is as follows:

276

Phil has two rectangular prisms. The height of the second prism is 1/2 times the height of the first prism. The lengths and widt

Vesnalui [34]

The volume of the second prism is also ten times the volume of the first prism.

Let's assume that both prisms have:

width = 3 units

height = 4 units

Prism 1 length = 5 units

Prism 2 length = 50 units

Let's solve their respective volumes to compare...

Volume of prism 1 = length * width * height

= 5 * 3 * 4

= 60 units ^3

Volume of prism 2 = 50 * 3 * 4

= 600 units ^3

Prism 2/ prism 1 = 10

That means prism 2 is ten times the volume of prism 1.

1. If the domain of a function f(x) is the set {10, 20, 30}. What does the information tell you about f-1(x)?

ziro4ka [17]

PART A (1 in diagram)

Each mapping diagram represents a function because none of the elements in the inputs maps on to two different elements in the outputs.

1. The domain of the given function f(x) is the set {10, 20, 30}.

All we can say about

${f}^{ - 1} (x)$

is that, it has a range of {10, 20, 30}.

This is because the domain of a function becomes the range of its inverse function.

2. If the graph of a function f(x) includes the point (3, 0), then the graph of the inverse function ,

${f}^{ - 1} (x)$

will contain the point (0,3).

Reason:The point on the graph of the inverse function is obtained by reflecting the corresponding point on the graph of the function in the line y=x. We just have to swap the coordinates.

In simple terms the domain of the function becomes the range of the inverse function and vice versa.

3. If the first term in an arithmetic sequence is 2.

Then we have a=2.

If the twelfth term is 211, then

$a + 11d = 211...(1)$

Put a=2 into this equation.

$2 + 11d = 211$

Solve for d.

$11d = 211 - 2$

$11d = 209$

$d = \frac{209}{11} = 19$

$a_n = 135$

then

$a + (n - 1)d = 135$

Substitute a=2 and d=19

$2 + (n - 1)19 = 135$

$19(n - 1) = 133$

$(n - 1) = \frac{133}{19}$

$n - 1 = 7$

$n = 7 + 1 = 8$

Therefore n=8

Complete the square to put () in vertex form. () = 3<br> 2 + 30 − 12. What is the vertex?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

A and A

the equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where ( h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

y = - 2(x + 3)² + 2 is in this form

with vertex = ( - 3, 2)

To find the y-intercept let x = 0

y = - 2(3)² + 2 = - 18 + 2 = - 16

Similarly

y = - 2(x + 2)² + 2 is in vertex form

vertex = ( - 2 , 2)

x = 0 : y = - 2(2)² + 2 = - 8 + 2 = - 6 ← y- intercept

hope this helped
