Answer:

  • (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Factorize the given expressions:</u>

  • x² - 16 = x² - 4² = (x - 4)(x + 4)
  • x² + 4x - 32 = x² + 8x - 4x - 32 = x(x + 8) - 4(x + 8) = (x - 4)(x + 8)

<u>The LCM is the product of all unique  factors of both expressions:</u>

  • (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 8)

The least common multiple is the smallest expression that can be divided by both of the given expressions.

x^2 - 16 = (x - 4)(x + 4)

x^2 + 4x - 32 = (x + 8)(x - 4)

Both of the factored versions of the expressions have an (x - 4) in them. Thus, that will automatically be included in the LCM. Next, we have to include the (x + 4) and the (x + 8) in our LCM.

LCM = (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 8)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

17.3825

Step-by-step explanation:

First I figured out the area of the square which is 18×18=324

Then I found out the are of the circle which is 254.47, so 324 - 254.47 = 69.53

Then there are 4 times the shaded are so divided by 4, so 69.53  ÷ 4 = 17.3825

Answer:

Range of the function → {24, 375}

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain of the function f(x) = 3x³ is {2, 5}

we have to find the range when its domain is {2, 5}

Since x-values of any function define the domain and y-values define the range.

For x = 2,

f(2) = 3(2)³ = 24

For x = 5,

f(5) = 3(5)³ = 375

Therefore, range of the given function for the given domain will be {24, 375}.

Fudgin [204]
If we let x as the number of years of service in the company and f(x) as the increase in the wage, the step wise function that describes the scenario is
f(x) = { 0.5,   x < 3
         { 1.0,   3 ≤ x < 6
         { 1.5,   6 ≤ x < 9
         { 2.0,   9 ≤ x < 12

The point (2, 12) represents the wage increase of x < 12
