Josh is trying to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 8. His work is shown at the right. What is Josh's mistake?
Explain how to find the correct LCM of 6 and 8.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

D is the midpoint of CE, then

CD = DE = 0.5CE = 0.5(10x+18) = 5x + 9

So:   5x + 9 = 7x - 1

            -9          -9

        5x  =  7x - 8

        -7x      -7x

       -2x  =  -8

      ÷(-2)       ÷(-2)        

          x  =  4

AC = CE = 10x + 18 = 40 + 18 = 58

BC = 9x - 2 = 36 - 2= 34

AB = AC - BC = 58 - 34 = 24

D is the midpoint of CE, so if you draw a line with those three points, it'll look like C-D-E.

Since DE = 7x-1, which also means CD = 7x-1.

CD + DE = CE, so (7x-1)+(7x-1) = 10x+18.

Therefore, x = 5 and CE = 68.

Since AC is congruent to CE, AC = 68.

Assuming the point B is somewhere between AC.

Since BC = 9x-2 and x = 5, which means BC = 43.

AC - BC = AB, so 68 - 43 = 25.

Therefore, AB = 25

Answer: did you ever get the answer? i’m doing the same problem rn and i have no idea

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{20-2x}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x + 5y = 20 ( isolate the term in y by subtracting 2x from both sides )

5y = 20 - 2x ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = [tex]\frac{20-2x}{5}[/tex]

Answer: The answer is C. 60

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the known angles to find the missing angles opposite angle. 180-60-70=130 then look at the line KM, it has to equal 180 so subtract the angle we just got to get the other angle 180-130=60

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

I counted each of the cubes and got 64.

Then I divided it by 4 since you need to divide it be 1/4.

once I divided 4 for 64 I got 16.

Answer:

The mean weight of the cats is 11.42 (rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, you add up all the weights (12, 12, 9, 9, 11, 11, 16) and then divided the sum (80) of the weights by the number of cats (7)

12+12+9+9+11+11+16= 80

80 ÷ 7= 11.42857143 (I rounded my answer to 11.42)

Answer: m<RUT=80

Step-by-step explanation:

took the test

If ray US is an angle bisector of ∠RUT, m∠RUT = 80°.

The angle bisector of an angle of a triangle is a straight line that divides the angle into two congruent angles. The three angle bisectors of the angles of a triangle meet in a single point, called the incenter.

According to the angle bisector theorem, PQ/PR = QS/RS or a/b = x/y. An angle bisector is a line or ray that divides an angle in a triangle into two equal measures.

Answer:  (x - 3)² + (y + 0.5)² = 3.25    →    [tex](x-3)^2+\bigg(y+\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^2=\dfrac{13}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Concentric means they have the same center but different radii.

The equation of a circle is:  (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²    where

Complete the square to find the center of the circle

x² - 6x + _____  + y² + y + _____ = 1 + ____ + ____

    ↓                              ↓

-6/2 = -3                    1/2 = 1/2

Equation: (x - 3)² + (y + 1/2)² = r²

Since the circle passes through point (x, y) = (4, -2), input that into the equation to find r².

(x - 3)² +  (y + 1/2)² = r²

(4 - 3)² + (-2 + 1/2)² = r²

  (1)²    +  (-3/2)²    = r²

   1      +     9/4      = r²

                 13/4     = r²

Equation: (x - 3)² + (y + 1/2)² = 13/4    →   [tex](x-3)^2+\bigg(y-\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^2=\dfrac{13}{4}[/tex]

In decimal form: (x - 3)² + (y + 0.5)² = 3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

4) t = n -r  Solve for n

Add r to both sides

t = n -r

+r     +r

t +r = n

Or  n = t+r

7) [tex]\frac{f}{g}[/tex] = h    Solve for f

Multiply both sides by g to get rid of fraction

g/1 (f/g) = h(g)

f = hg

Answer:

x=55, and y=62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why x=55 is because x and the angle 125 degrees form a linear pair (180 degrees) Hence,

x+125=180

=> x=180-125

=> x=55

Now coming to y, As we see y and 125 do not form a linear pair, so we know that x=the top angle of the triangle in which angle y is there. And with the information we also find that the triangle in which y is present is an isosceles triangle, so the other 2 angle  than the top angle are equal, which are y and another angle which is also y as they are the same degrees. Hence, we know x=55, then,

55+2y=180(As the angles in a triangle sum up to 180 degrees)  

=> 2y=180-55

=> 2y=125

=> y=125/2

=> y=62.5

Given, equation in the question which we have to solve is

[tex]2x - 5 = 7[/tex]

Here, we need to find x. So, Let's isolate x on one side of the equation. It is present in the left hand side. Add 5 to both sides,

[tex]2x - 5 + 5 = 7 + 5[/tex]

[tex]2x = 12[/tex]

Divide 2 from both sides,

[tex] \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{12}{2} [/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify a ratio is like like simplifying a fraction

Take 4/8 as an example. Find a number you can divide both numbers with. In this case, it's 4. 4 divided by 4= 1, and 8 divided by 4= 2. So, the simplified version of 4/8 is 1/2. Similarly, with the ration 60:£3, you find the number you can divided both numbers with. In this case, it is 3. 3 divided by 3= 1, and 60 divided by 3= 20.
