Least common multiple: factor them, then see what they have in common and what is leftover and multiply those expressions:
(x - 2)(x + 3) 10(x + 3)(x + 3)
Common: (x + 3)
Leftover: (x - 2), (10), (x + 3)
Common · Leftover is: (x + 3) · (x - 2) · (10) · (x + 3) = 10(x - 2)(x + 3)²
Answer: LCM is 10(x - 2)(x + 3)²
The answer can be readily calculated using a single variable, x:
Let x = the amount being invested at an annual rate of 10%
Let (8000 - x) = the amount being invested at an annual rate of 12%
The problem is then stated as:
(x * 0.10) + ((8000 - x) * 0.12) = 900
0.10(x) + ((8000 * 0.12) - 0.12(x)) = 900
0.10(x) + 960 - 0.12(x) = 900
0.10(x) - 0.12(x) = 900 - 960
-0.02(x) = -60
-0.02(x) * -100/2 = -60 * -100/2
x = 6000 / 2
x = 3000
Thus, $3,000 is invested at 10% = $300 annually; and $8,000 - $3,000 = $5,000 invested at 12% = $600 annually, which sum to $900 annual investment.
If you change the point's x-coordinate, the point will move either to the left or the right, depending on if the number you change is negative or positive.
