<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.

skelet666 [1.2K]

x = 8

Explanation:

AE = 3x - 4

EC = x + 12

SInce diagonals AC and DB intersect at E

it means the lines which meet at the intersection E are equal. A and C meet at E which gives AE and EC

AE = EC

3x - 4 = x + 12

collect like terms:

3x - x = 12 + 4

2x = 16

divide both sides by 2:

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8

I dont understand how to simplify an expression with exponents
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

3^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying an expression with expression with exponents:

If they are dividing, we keep the base and subtract the exponents. For example:

\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}

In this question:

\frac{3^2}{3^{-2}}=3^{2-(-2)}=3^{2+2}=3^4

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

14x + 18 + x = -112(x + 36) + 13

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute -112:                         14x + 18 + x = -112x - 4032 + 13
  2. Combine like terms:                15x + 18 = -112x - 4019
  3. Add 112x on both sides;          127x + 18 = -4019
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                          127x = -4037
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                   x = -4037/127
