The usual definition of Least Common Multiple of two numbers states that is the Least positive integer that can be evenly divided by both numbers. The way it is usually defined the two numbers must be positive integers
Here is a set of 5 numbers that give a mean of 17.25.
Answer:
14, 11, 16, 21, 24.25
Answer:
k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10
===============================
note: you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"
f(x) = x^2+3x-10
f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5
f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10
f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10
f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30
Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13
x^2+13x+30 = 0
(x+10)(x+3) = 0
x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -10 or x = -3
The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps kind of.
