Joe was in charge of lights for a dance. The red light blinks every two seconds, the yellow light every three seconds, and the blue light every five seconds. If we include the very beginning and very end of the dance, how many times during a seven minute dance will all the lights come on at the same time

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We consider:

T1 = 2s

T2 = 3s

T3 = 5s

We calculate the least common multiple of the Ts:

Ttot = 30 s.

During a seven minute dance the lights will come on at the same time:

7*60 s / 30 = 14 times.

Answer 2

In a span of 7 minutes, the lights will blink together 14 times.

What is LCM?

LCM of two or more than two given numbers is the smallest common multiple that is divisible by two or more than two given numbers.

Given, Joe was in charge of lights for a dance.

The red light blinks every two seconds, the yellow light every three seconds, and the blue light every five seconds.

LCM of 2, 3, and 5 is 30 so the lights blink together after every 30 seconds.

So, in 7 minutes or (7×60) = 420 seconds the lights will blink together

(420/30) = (42/3) = 14 times.

FACTORIZE AND Split the middle term: 72 + b - b^2​

Answers

Answer:

- (b - 9)(b + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

72 + b - b² ← factor out - 1 from each term and rearrange into standard form

= - (b² - b - 72) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 72) which sum to give the coefficient of the b- term (- 1)

The factors are - 9 and + 8

Use these factors to split the b- term

b² - 9b + 8b - 72 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

b(b - 9) + 8(b - 9) ← factor out (b - 9) from each term

(b - 9)(b + 8)

Then

72 + b - b² = - (b - 9)(b + 8)

can you please help me find X in this problem it is so confusing

Answers

Answer:

  x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different ways to get there.

1.

The unmarked angle at bottom left is an alternate interior angle with the one at the top marked 50°. So, it is congruent to 50°.

That makes the angles along the line at the bottom be ...

  50° +x° +105° = 180° . . . . . the measure of a linear angle

  x° = 180° -155° = 25°

__

2.

The unmarked angle at top right is a same-side interior angle relative to the one at bottom marked 105°. As such it is supplementary to 105°, and has measure ...

  180° -105° = 75°

This angle (upper right) is an exterior angle to the triangle. As such, it is equal to the sum of the two "remote" interior angles of the triangle—the ones marked 50° and x°.

  75° = 50° +x°

  25° = x° . . . . . . . subtract 50°

__

3.

The unmarked interior angle of the triangle is an alternate interior angle with the one marked 105°. So, it is congruent to 105°. The sum of the triangle interior angles is 180°, so you have ...

  x° +50° +105° = 180°

  x = 180° -155° = 25° . . . . as we had with our first approach

Anyone please solve and explain part b

Answers

Answer:

f(2) = -6

f inverse of 1/2 is 17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function [tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x) = \frac{6}{2x-5}}[/tex]

To solve for part (a), we have to substitute x = 2 in f(x).

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(2)=\frac{6}{2(2)-5} \\\displaystyle \large{f(2)=\frac{6}{4-5}=\frac{6}{-1}=-6[/tex]

Therefore, f(2) is -6.

Now we solve for part (b), we see the notation which is a minor different similar to f(x). We see that there is exponent of -1 between f and 1/2. The part (b) indicates that the function is an inverse of f(x).

[tex]\displaystyle \large{y=f^{-1}(x) \longrightarrow x=f(y)}[/tex]

To solve for part (b), first we solve for x in the function. Let f(x) = y.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{y=\frac{6}{2x-5}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2x-5.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{y(2x-5)=\frac{6}{2x-5}(2x-5)}\\\displaystyle \large{y(2x-5)=6}[/tex]

Divide both sides by y-term.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\frac{y(2x-5)}{y}=\frac{6}{y}}\\\displaystyle \large{2x-5=\frac{6}{y}}\\\displaystyle \large{2x=\frac{6}{y}+5}\\\displaystyle \large{x=\frac{6}{2y}+\frac{5}{2}}\\\displaystyle \large{x=\frac{3}{y}+\frac{5}{2}}[/tex]

Then swap x and y which we receive [tex]\displaystyle \large{y=\frac{3}{x}+\frac{5}{2}}[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x)=\frac{6}{2x-5} \longrightarrow f^{-1}(x)=\frac{3}{x}+\frac{5}{2}}[/tex]

Thus, [tex]\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{3}{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{5}{2}}\\\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})=6+\frac{5}{2}}\\\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{17}{2}}[/tex]

Using ruler and compasses only, construct a parallelogram KLMN, so that KL = 8 cm, LM = 6 cm and angle KLM = 135°.​

Answers

The steps to construct a parallelogram using a ruler and a compass are;

1. Draw a starting line segment l linger than 8 cm.

2. Mark point K on the line segment.

3. Widen the compass to a radius of 8 cm using the ruler.

4. Place the compass at point K and with the 8 cm radius mark point L on the line l.

5. At point L construct a 45° angle as follows;

Draw arcs that intersect line l on both sides of point L.From each of the intersection points, draw arcs that intersect each other on on the upper area adjacent to line l.From the intersection point in the previous step, draw a line to point L to get a perpendicular line to line l.Draw arcs to intersect the perpendicular line and line l on the other side of point L from K.From the points the arc intersects the perpendicular line draw arcs of the same radius to intersect at a point X to the right of the perpendicular line.

The above steps bisects the 90° angle of the perpendicular lines.

Join point X to point L with a straight line to form ∠XLM = 135° (90° + 45° = 135°)

6. Adjust the radius of the compass to give an opening of 6 cm and from point L draw an arc to intersect XL at M.

7. At point M construct a line YM at 45° angle to the line l.

8. From point M draw an arc to intersect YM and label the point as point N.

9. Join point M and N to complete the construction of the parallelogram KLMN.

The range of possible values for the variable is x < 12

From the given figure, we can see that the side facing angle 30 degrees, is greater than the side facing angle 3x -6. Therefore the inequality expression is true based on the figure.

30 > 3x - 6

Swap sides

3x - 6 < 30

Add 6 to both sides

3x - 6 + 6 < 30 + 6

3x < 36

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 < 36/3

x < 12

Mr. and Mrs. Ozawa are driving their family to a vacation spot 496 miles away. They want to get there in 8 hours. What is the average speed they need to drive?




Answers

The average speed Mr and Mrs Ozawa should drive is 62 miles per hour.

What is the difference between average and instantaneous speed?

The average speed is calculated for a period of time while instantaneous speed is calculated at certain instant of time.

For instantaneous speed and average speed are equal for an object moving with constant speed.

The total distance travelled is given as 496 miles.

And, the total time taken is 8 hours.

Average speed can be calculated by taking the ratio of total distance and time as follows,

Total distance ÷ Total time

⇒ 496 ÷ 8

⇒ 62

Hence, the average speed is given as 496 miles per hour.
