Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A
No 24 is not the best number to use for the LCD, although it will work. 12 is much better because it is smaller.
B
Factor each number into it's primes.
24 =<u> 2*2*2</u>*3
32 = <u>2*2*2</u>*2*2
The highest common factor is 2*2*2 = 8
C
9/10 - 3/10 = 6/10 The denominator remains the same. The numerators get subtracted.
6/10 = 3/5 Two goes into both numerator and denominator of the answer. Therefore you can divide both 6 an 10 by 2
A to the second power is the answer to this problem
A) multiply equation A by -2 so you get -2x - 2z = -12 and then you can add both equations to eliminate z
Hope this helps you understand
