Answer:

Find the LCD of the first two, then the LCD of that and the third one.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do it by finding the LCD of two of the denominators, then the LCD of that and the third denominator.

Or, you can factor each of the denominators and find their LCM by multiplying the unique factors to their highest powers.

___

Example:

1/21 + 1/35 + 1/45

The LCD of 1/21 and 1/35 is (21·35)/5 = 105. The LCD of 1/105 and 1/45 is ...

(105·45)/15 = 315

Using factoring ...

21 = 3·7
35 = 5·7
45 = 3²·5

LCD = 3²·5·7 = 315

1/3x * 6 = -8 it says solve

bulgar [2K]

Subtract 6 from both sides, you get 1/3x=-14

Now multiply both sides by there, hence x=-42

The Mendes family bought a new house 8 years ago $129,000. The new house is now worth $186,000. Assuming a steady rate of growth

USPshnik [31]

So assuming simplet interest

find the change to find the interest
change=186000-129000=57000

simple interest=time times rate times principal
time is in years (8)
rate is in decimal
principal is amount invested (129000)

so
interest is 57000
57000=(8)(r)(129000)
57000=1032000r
divide both sides by 1032000
0.05523255813953488372093023255814=r
or
5.523255813953488372093023255814%
rounded
5.5%

Answer:

The answer is 100.5 $in^{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the volume of the cylinder, use the cylinder volume formula, which is V = $\pi r^{2} h$ .

Next, plug in the information given from the problem, and the formula will look like V = $(\pi) (2 in^{2}) (8 in)$ .

Then, solve the equation, and the answer will be 100.5 $in^{3}$ .

When s is the open hemisphere x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1, z ≤ 0 , oriented by the inward normal pointing to the origin, then the bounda

Anit [1.1K]

The figure below shows a diagram of this problem. First of all we graph the hemisphere. This one has a radius equal to 1. Given that z ≤ 0 a sphere will be valid only in the negative z-axis, that is, we will get a half of a sphere that is the hemisphere shown in the figure. We know that this hemisphere is oriented by the inward normal pointing to the origin, then we have a Differential Surface Vector called N, using the Right-hand rule the boundary orientation is counterclockwise.

Therefore, the answer above False
