A geometry student named Cornell claims that the two triangles in the diagram below are similar to one another. He asserts that

the LMN is similar to STU because the sides on the bigger triangle are spaced the same as the sides of the smaller triangle.
Explain why Cornell is mistaken in his conclusions about LMN and STU. In writing your response, be sure to explain the concept of proportionality. Also be sure to include important math vocabulary such as
similarity, corresponding sides, and ratios.

Find the least common multiple of each pair of polynomials.<br> 5 y² - 80 and y + 4
kobusy [5.1K]

The least common multiple of each pair of the polynomial (5y² - 80) and

(y + 4) is equal to 5(y-4)(y+4).

As given in the question,

Given pair of the polynomial is (5y² - 80) and (y + 4)

Simplify the given polynomial using (a² -b²) = (a-b)(a +b)

(5y² - 80) = 5(y² -16)

⇒(5y² - 80) = 5(y² - 4²)

⇒(5y² - 80) = 5(y -4)(y + 4)

And  (y + 4) = (1) (y+4)

Least common multiple = 5(y-4)(y+ 4)

Therefore, the least common multiple of the given pair of the polynomial is 5(y -4)(y+ 4).

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! In Algebra, we learn about many types of functions. These functions vary from simple to complex. Think a
Kryger [21]

Answer: Algebraically, linear functions are polynomial functions with a highest exponent of one, exponential functions have a variable in the exponent, and quadratic functions are polynomial functions with a highest exponent of two.

Step-by-step explanation: A linear equation is a type of equation in which the graph is straight and each term is a constant or a power of a constant. The formula is y=mx+b. Quadratic equations are similar to exponential equations by having a curve in the graph.
