List the multiples of both 12 and 9:

12, 24, 36, 48, 60

9, 18, 27, 36, 45

The lowest common multiple is 36.

This will make the fixtures and bulbs equal.

This means they bought 3 packages of light figures 3 x 12 = 36)

And bought 4 packages of bulbs ( 4 x 9 = 36)

Find out LCM of 9,12

  • LCM=2(2)(3)(3)=36

Now

No of light packages=36/12=3

No of light bulbs=36/4=9

Solve by factoring : x^2-5x-36=0
il63 [147K]

Answer:

-9 and +4 are the factors

Step-by-step explanation:

-9 times +4 is -36 and if you add +4 to -9, you get -5.

After this your function will look like this:

x^2-9x+4x-36

and then:

x(x-9)+4(x-9)

so the answer is:

(x-9)(x+4)
