Answer: The answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation: One easy way to find least common multiples is to take the large number and multiply it by increasing numbers (1,2,3,etc.) until a number is found that is also divisible by the smaller number.

In this case, we can multiple 12 by increasing numbers until we find a number that is also divisible by 8.

12

⋅

This is not divisible by 8.

The difference between the squares of two consecutive numbers is 23. what are the two numbers?
Ksju [112]

(x+1)^2-x^2=23

x^2+2x+1-x^2=23

2x+1=23

2x=22

x=11

11^2 = 121

x+1 =12

12^2=144

144-121 = 23

A scuba diver swam 96 feet beneath the surface of the lake.he then climb up 49 feet .wat is the depth now?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The depth now is 47 feet below the surface of the lake

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine initial depth

Initial depth=surface level-depth below surface

where;

Surface level=0, since its the point of reference

depth below surface=96 feet

replacing;

Initial depth=(0-96)=-96 feet

Step 2: Final depth

Final depth=Initial depth+distance covered

where;

Initial depth=-96 feet

distance covered=+49 feet since the scuba driver moves towards the surface

replacing;

distance covered=-96+49=-47 feet

The depth now is 47 feet below the surface of the lake
