Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM is the lowest common multiple, this means the smallest number that 6, 4 and 10 can go into without giving a decimal number, so they give an integer.

Here's a trick, use prime factorization
Prime factorization means, write a number as the result of the multiplication of prime numbers
prime numbers are numbers with only two factors, 1 and itself
So the prime factorization of 6, 4 and 10 is
6 = 2 x 3
4 = 2 x 2
10 = 2 x 5
For each prime factor, find where it occurs most often as a factor and write it that many times in a new list.
So 2 occurs most often as a factor of 4, so we use two 2s
3 occurs most often as a factor of 6, so we use one 3
5 occurs most often as a factor of 10, so we use one 5
Then multiply this new list of numbers
2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
that's how you quickly get the LCM

Altitudes AA1 and BB1 are drawn in acute △ABC. Prove that A1C·BC=B1C·AC

Sophie [7]

Answer:

See the attached figure which represents the problem.

As shown, AA₁ and BB₁ are the altitudes in acute △ABC.

△AA₁C is a right triangle at A₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = A₁C/AC ⇒(1)

△BB₁C is a right triangle at B₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = B₁C/BC ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

∴ A₁C/AC = B₁C/BC

using scissors method

∴ A₁C · BC = B₁C · AC

A LANE IN THE MIDDLE OF A TWO-WAY ROAD THAT HAS DASHED LINES ON BOTH SIDES AND TWO LARGE CURVED ARROWS FACING EACH OTHER MAY BE

Nonamiya [84]

This lane symbol is used for marking the beginning and ending of a left turn to the drivers.

What are lane symbols?

A permitted lane usage is denoted by a lane symbol. For example, a lane marked with a diamond is one that is designated for high-occupancy cars. A lane symbol of a bicycle marks that the lane is designated for cyclists. At crossings, arrows indicate movements that are necessary or allowed. The user of the roadway must yield when there is a row of solid triangles. Likewise, two large curved arrows facing each other on a lane in the middle of a two way road with dashed lines on either sides indicate the beginning and ending of a left turn.

A Lane symbol or marking are also utilized to warn drivers of potentially dangerous situations that may be coming up. For instance, a triangle with no filling indicates a yield ahead. A speed hump is indicated by a succession of lines across a lane that get bigger and wider.

Please<br>Help me I don't get this!

Vikentia [17]

The 4 in and the 6 in are the same but the difference between the two triangles are 1.5

6:4 = 1.5
So if 12 = 1.5 (?)
The (?) = 8

Add using the number line. −0.5 + (−1.7)

Rudik [331]

Answer:

- 0.5 - 1.7 = - 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add two numbers using the number line.

Steps to Add Numbers on the Number Line:

When we add a negative numbers that we move the point to the left of the number line.

We are adding two negative numbers. Locate the first number which is -0.5. Then, add negative 1.7 to it which means moving the existing point 1.7 units to the left of the number line.

So, we get 2.2 on the left.

2.2 is left side it means sign is negative.

Final answer is -2.2
