Answer:

11/16 inch or 0.6875 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

26 * x = 17 7/8

17 7/8 = 143/8

143/8 ÷ 26 = 143/8 x 1/26 = 143/208 = 0.6875

0.6875 in = 11/16 in

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!

Find the least common multiple for 6(x+1)^3(x-4)^2 and 10(x+1)^8(x-4)^5
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

30(x+1)^8 (x-4)^5

Step-by-step explanation

<h3>6(x+1)^{3}(x-4))^{2}=2X3 X (x+1)^3(x-4)^2\\10(x+1)^8(x-4)^5)= 2X5X(x+1)^8 (x-4)^5\\</h3>

In order to find the Least common multiple we write each of the factor only once from each of the expression and for the common expression we take their LCM as maximum of the exponent in  all expressions

as here in the question exponent of (x+1) are 3 and 8 so we take exponent 8

likewise for (x-4) we shall take maximum of 2 and 5 which is 5

so our expression for Least common multiple will be

2X3X5 X (x+1)^8 (x-4)^5

30(x+1)^8 (x-4)^5

LA BASE DE UN RECTANGULO ES 8 M MAYOR QUE LA ALTURA, EL AREA MIDE 65 METROS CUADRADOS ¿CUANTO MIDEN LA BASE Y ALTURA?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

23 m and 15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

THE BASE OF A RECTANGLE IS 8 M GREATER THAN THE HEIGHT, THE AREA MEASURES 65 SQUARE METERS HOW MUCH DO THE BASE AND HEIGHT MEASURE?

Let the height of the rectangle is h.

Base = 8+h

Area of the rectangle, A = 65 m²

We need to find the base and height of the rectangle. The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = bh

So,

65=(8+h)\times h\\\\65=8h+h^2\\\\h^2+8h-65=0\\\\(h-5)(h+13)=0\\\\h=5\ m\ \text{and}\ x=-13\ m

Neglecting negative value, h = 15 m

Base  = 8+15 = 23 m

So, the base and height of the rectangle is 23 m and 15 m respectively.
