In order to find how many times they will blink at the same time we need to find the common multiple of 4 and 6 between 1 and 60.

The first bulb blinks after every 4 seconds, means it blinks in multiple of 4.

The multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60.

The second bulb blinks after every 6 seconds, means it blinks in multiple of 6.

The multiples of 6 = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60.

The common multiple of 4 and 6 = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60.

∴

in sixty seconds they will blink 5 times at the same time.

What is the slope of this graph?<br><br> −1/3<br><br> 3<br><br> 1/3<br><br> −3
FromTheMoon [43]
I'm assuming there is probably a graph that goes with this problem so here is all the info I can give you with the four choices: If it is -1/3, the line will go DOWN 1, over 3 (just count on the graph) If it is 3, the line will go UP 3, over 1 If it is 1/3, the line will go UP 1, over 3 And if it it -3, it will go DOWN 3, over 1 (If the slope is 3 or -3, it would be quite steep compared to a slope of 1/3 or -1/3) Hope that helps!

Given the function f(x) = 2|x + 6| -4, for what values of x is f(x) = 6?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

f(x) = 2|x + 6|-4

6=2|x + 6|-4

10= 2|x + 6|

divide by 2

5=|x + 6|

x = 5-6

x = -1

so x should be -1
