Answer: 123

Step-by-step explanation:

Foe us to solve this, we have to find the lowest common multiple of 16, 20 and 24 first and then add 3 to the LCM. This goes thus:

Multiples of 16 = 16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160

Multiples of 20 = 20, 40, 60, 80, 10, 120, 140, 160

Multiples of 24 = 24, 48, 72, 96, 120

Therefore, the Lowe's common multiple is 120.

We then add the remainder of 3 and this will give:

= 120 + 3

= 123

Use a calculator to approximate the measure of the acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree. sin A = 0.7793

Aleksandr [31]

The measure of acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is 51.2°

<h3>Measure of angles</h3>

From the given information, we are to determine the measure of the angle.

The angle we are to determine its measure is acute angle A

From the given information, we have that

sin A = 0.7793

Thus,

A = sin⁻¹(0.7793)

Using calculator

A = 51.1965°

A ≅ 51.2°

Hence, the measure of acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is 51.2°

The sum of two squares of two consecutive natural numbers is 41.Find the numbers

Arada [10]

<h3><u>AnswEr</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>

The 2 unknown numbers are 4 and 5 .

<h3><u>Expla</u><u>nation</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>

Let the numbers be x and x + 1.

From the given information,

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ x^2 + (x + 1)^2 = 41 \\ \\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ 2 {x}^{2} + 2x + 1 = 41 \\ \\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ 2 {x}^{2} + 2x + 1 - 41=0 \\ \\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ {x}^{2} + x - 20 = 0 \\ \\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ (x + 5)(x - 4)=0 \\ \\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ { \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{ \red{x = - 5,4}}}}} \ \bigstar \\ \\$

But, as we know -5 is not a natural number,

Hence, x = 4 .

<u>So the 2 unknown numbers are</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

x = 4 [1st number]

x + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5 [2nd number]
