LCM \(= 2×2×2×3×3=72\)
27- Choice B is correct
The coordinate plane has two axes. The vertical line is called the \(y\)-axis and the horizontal is called the \(x\)-axis. The points on the coordinate plane are addressed using the form \((x,y)\). Point A is one unit on the left side of \(x\)-axis, therefore its \(x\) value is 4 and it is two units up, therefore its \(y\) axis is 2. The coordinate of the point is: (4, 2)
28- Choice B is correct
\(α\) and \(β\) are supplementary angles. The sum of supplementary angles is 180 degrees.
\(α+β=180^\circ→α=180^\circ-β=180^\circ-125^\circ=55^\circ,\) Then, \(\frac{α}{β}=\frac{55}{125}=\frac{11}{25}\)
