Answer:

8:07:12 am

Step-by-step explanation:

The lights will change simultaneously after any multiple of the least common multiple of their cycle times.

The least common multiple of a set of numbers is the product of the highest powers of their prime factors.

48 = 2⁴×3

72 = 2³×3²

108 = 2²×3³

The highest power of the factor 2 is 4. The highest power of the factor 3 is 3, so the LCM of the numbers 48, 72, and 108 is ...

LCM = 2⁴×3³ = 16×27 = 432

The lights will change simultaneously after each period of 7 minutes 12 seconds. They will change simultaneously again at 8:07:12 am.

You would use PEMDAS

But since any number divided by 1 is the number by which it is divided by then you can eliminate that. Now your problem looks like this:
8✖️4➕9✖️56➕57

Since there are no parentheses or exponents then you would multiply.
8✖️4= 32
32➕9✖️56➕57

Then multiply the other multiplication problem.
9✖️56= 504
32➕504➕57

Now you can add all of the numbers together
32➕504=536
536➕57=593

Your answer is 593

Hope this helps! :3

How can I calculate a square root without guess and check?

Darina [25.2K]

By multiplying the same numbers.

2*2=4 *4 square root is 2

3*3=9 *9 square root is 3

4*4=16 *16 square root is 4

5*5=25 *25 square root is 5

Try this, maybe it will work :)

For which system of equations is (5, 3) the solution? A. 3x – 2y = 9 3x + 2y = 14 B. x – y = –2 4x – 3y = 11 C. –2x – y = –13 x

Alla [95]

The correct answer is:

D) $\left \{ {{2x-y=7} \atop {2x+7y=31}} \right.$ .

Explanation:

We solve each system to find the correct answer.

For A:
$\left \{ {{3x-2y=9} \atop {3x+2y=14}} \right.$

Since we have the coefficients of both variables the same, we will use elimination to solve this.

Since the coefficients of y are -2 and 2, we can add the equations to solve, since -2+2=0 and cancels the y variable:
$\left \{ {{3x-2y=9} \atop {+(3x+2y=14)}} \right. 
\\
\\6x=23$

Next we divide both sides by 6:
6x/6 = 23/6
x = 23/6

This is not the x-coordinate of the answer we are looking for, so A is not correct.

For B:
$\left \{ {{x-y=-2} \atop {4x-3y=11}} \right.$

For this equation, it will be easier to isolate a variable and use substitution, since the coefficient of both x and y in the first equation is 1:
x-y=-2

Add y to both sides:
x-y+y=-2+y
x=-2+y

We now substitute this in place of x in the second equation:
4x-3y=11
4(-2+y)-3y=11

Using the distributive property, we have:
4(-2)+4(y)-3y=11
-8+4y-3y=11

Combining like terms, we have:
-8+y=11

Add 8 to each side:
-8+y+8=11+8
y=19

This is not the y-coordinate of the answer we're looking for, so B is not correct.

For C:
Since the coefficient of x in the second equation is 1, we will use substitution again.

x+2y=-11

To isolate x, subtract 2y from each side:
x+2y-2y=-11-2y
x=-11-2y

Now substitute this in place of x in the first equation:
-2x-y=-13
-2(-11-2y)-y=-13

Using the distributive property, we have:
-2(-11)-2(-2y)-y=-13
22+4y-y=-13

Combining like terms:
22+3y=-13

Subtract 22 from each side:
22+3y-22=-13-22
3y=-35

Divide both sides by 3:
3y/3 = -35/3
y = -35/3

This is not the y-coordinate of the answer we're looking for, so C is not correct.

For D:
Since the coefficients of x are the same in each equation, we will use elimination. We have 2x in each equation; to eliminate this, we will subtract, since 2x-2x=0:

$\left \{ {{2x-y=7} \atop {-(2x+7y=31)}} \right. 
\\
\\-8y=-24$

Divide both sides by -8:
-8y/-8 = -24/-8
y=3

The y-coordinate is correct; next we check the x-coordinate Substitute the value for y into the first equation:
2x-y=7
2x-3=7

Add 3 to each side:
2x-3+3=7+3
2x=10

Divide each side by 2:
2x/2=10/2
x=5

This gives us the x- and y-coordinate we need, so D is the correct answer.
