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

BRAINLIEST WILL I GIVE HURRY
stepladder [879]

Answer:

{10,8}

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 4y = -62

4x + 5y = 0

let's eliminate the x

-3x + 4y = -62 | x -4 |

4x + 5y = 0 | x 3 |

12x - 16y = 248

12x + 15y = 0

-------------------- -

-31y = 248

y = 248/(-31) = 8

since you must do this proble with elimination, we cant use subtitution. so we repeat the way once more to find x (eliminate y)

-3x + 4y = -62 | x 5 |

4x + 5y = 0 | x 4 |

-15x + 20y = -310

16x + 20y = 0

-------------------- -

-31x = -310

x = -310/-31 = 10

Which are the center and radius of the circle with equation (x + 5)2 + (y - 4)2 = 9?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Center (-5,4) radius 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where the center is (h,k) and r is the radius

so h=-5 in this case and k is 4

r^2=9 so r=3
