Crank3 years ago

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.    Φ^2 − Φ − 1 = 0

Φ2 − Φ = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 - 0.25 = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 = 1.25

Φ - 0.5 = √(1.25)      (We only take the positive root).

Φ  = 0.5 + √(1.25)

b. I used Completing the square.

c.  Φ is irrational That is it cannot be represented as a fraction a/b and because of this it can only be approximated by a decimal.

What is the lcm of 16, 24 and 40
ivann1987 [24]
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
