<h3>Answer:  126</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

Let x and y be the two numbers.

We're given x = 162 and the variable y is unknown.

We're also given LCM = 1134 and HCF = 18

So,

LCM = (x*y)/HCF

1134 = 162*y/18

1134 = (162/18)y

1134 = 9y

9y = 1134

y = 1134/9

y = 126

The other number is 126

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

Notice that

  • 162 = 18*9
  • 126 = 18*7

showing that 18 is the highest common factor (HCF) of the numbers 162 and 126. This partially confirms the answer.

Now let,

  • A = multiples of 162
  • B = multiples of 126

So,

  • A = 162, 324, 486, 648, 810, 972, 1134, 1296, ...
  • B = 126, 252, 378, 504, 630, 756, 882, 1008, 1134, 1260, ...

We see that 1134 is in each list of multiples and the smallest such common item. So the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 162 and 126 is 1134. This helps fully confirm the answer.

Look at the function f(x) = x3 - 4 x. which describes an interval in which the function is increasing?
Bad White [126]
Differentiate it
 get  f ' (x)=3x^2-4
put 3x^2-4=0
x=2/√3,-2/√3
so interval 
x∈(-2/√3,2/√3)

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to y = -7/4x?
dexar [7]
A line is perpendiculat to another which has a slope of m if the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/m.
That means that if the product of slopes of two lines is -1, the two lines are perpendicular.

Here, y1=-7/4x, or m=-7/4
The perpendicular should have a slope of -1/m=-1/(-7/4)=4/7
