<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.

natulia [17]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

15 gold ribbons

22 blue ribbons

53 red ribbons

Total of 53 + 22 + 15 = 90 ribbons

Total number of students = 12 boys + 18 girls = 30 students.

If evenly divided, each student will have 90/30 = 3 ribbons

The expression to solve would basically be the amalgamation of what we did above:

(53 + 22 + 15)/(12+18)

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

A (3, 1/2) B (-3/2, -7/4) C (7/5, 9/2)

Just a helpful tip for next time you need to graph something, you can look up "Graph Generator" and click on one of the first couple links and then you can put in your points. It makes it easier on the brain to be able to see and understand an accurate, and clean graph with the points on it.
