Step-by-step explanation:

First finding LCM of 9 and 12

9 = 3 × 3

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

LCM = 3 × 2 × 2 × 3

LCM = 36

Now,

No. of light fixtures = 36/12 = 3

No. of light bulb = 48/12 = 4

Answer:

  • 3 and 4 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the LCM of 12 and 9.

  • 9 = 3*3
  • 12 = 2*2*3

<u>Their LCM is:</u>

  • LCM(12, 9) = 2*2*3*3 = 36

Number of light fixtures and light bulbs is 36.

<u>Number of packages will be:</u>

  • 36/12 = 3 and
  • 36/9 = 4 respectively.

anzhelika [568]

Answer: Jason paid $33 for the jacket

Step-by-step explanation: 50% of 88 is 44. Because it’s percent off we subtract. 88-44=44. That’s the discount price. Now we discount the discounted price. Remember that this is NOT a 75% discount, it’s two separate discounts. 25% of 44 is 11. 44-11=33. The final price is $33.

Twice the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 is 510. What is the smaller number?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The smaller number is 127

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets write the given problem in equation form

sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 = n + n + 1 = 2n + 1

now we find twice of the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1

2*(2n + 1) = 4n + 2

given that

twice the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 is 510

thus,

4n + 2 = 510

=> 4n = 510 -2 = 508

=> n = 508/4 = 127

Thus, the numbers are n = 127

n+1 = 127 + 1 = 128

the smaller number is 127

Hello,

x² + 5x + 6 = 0

a = 1 ; b = 5 ; c = 6

∆ = b² - 4ac = 5² - 4 × 1 × 6 = 25 - 24 = 1 > 0

2 solutions :

x_{1} =  \frac{ - b -  \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}  =  \frac{ - 5 - 1}{2 \times 1}  =  \frac{ - 6}{2}  =  - 3

x_{2} =  \frac{ - b  +   \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}  =  \frac{ - 5  + 1}{2 \times 1}  =  \frac{ - 4}{2}  =  - 2

S = { -3 ; -2}
