X^5 (X to the fifth power) - 4 (x^5 - 4)
Do u have a pic of the problem?
In f(x) = 3x + 2, the x is being represented in the function. So, if we replace the x with the g(x) functions, we get:
f(g(x)) = 3(2x - 4) + 2
f(g(x)) = 6x - 12 + 2
f(g(x)) = 6x - 10
The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.
The least common multiple of two numbers is the lowest value number that is a multiple of both the numbers. To find the least common multiple of 3 and 8, you first list their multiples:
Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24...
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56...
When you compare the two lists of multiples, you can see that the number 24 is the lowest number that is a multiple of both 3 and 8, so it is their LCM, or least common multiple.
