Answer:

The LCD of the fractions 1/6 and 1/2 is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCD of 2 or more fractions is the least common multiple of the denominators.

The given fractions are 1/2 and 1/6. The denominators are 2 and 6

List the multiples of each denominator:

Multiples of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, …

Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, ..

The least common multiple that the two share is 6.

So the LCD of 1/2 and 1/6 is 6.

Find the values of x any y.

Ede4ka [16]

There are so many types of angles, let's see what we've got here!

--(5x - 17) and 48 are alternate interior angles, which means that they are congruent.

--(5x - 17) and y are supplementary angles.

--48 and y are same-side interior angles, which means that they are also supplementary.

Let's solve for x first.

5x - 17 = 48

5x = 65

x = 13

Now, let's solve for y.

48 + y = 180

y = 132

Hope this helps!! :)
