I'll presume the slash is the fraction bar and the questioner is asking about
That always equals 4 except when
So the restriction is
Answer: a ≠ -3
The LCM is the lowest number that is a multiple of all three numbers.
First, list the multiples of each number
8: 8, 16, 24, 32,40 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104, 112, 120
10: 10, 20, 30 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120
12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120
The LCM is 120 because there is no lower number that is a multiple of all three numbers.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A line in slope-intercept form in y = mx + b
"m" is the slope
"b" is the y-intercept
x and y represent points on the graph
To write an equation, you need "m" and "b".
We already know m = -1/2
The point (0, 2) is the y-intercept. The y-intercept occurs when x = 0.
Points are in the form (x , y), so x = 0 and y = 2.
Therefore b = 2.
Substitute m = -1/2 and b = 2 into the equation:
y = mx + b
y = -1/2x + 2
Divide both sides by their LCD, 2
2/4 = 1/2
1/2 is irreducible
-3.073 that is the correct answer
