Since the beacons rotate together, the angular speed is constant.
From the time you see the first beacon, you have to wait for the lighthouse to make 120°, i.e. 1/3 of a whole turn.
So, if T is the time it takes for the lighthouse to make a whole turn, the interval between the first and the second beacon is T/3.
The interval between the second and third beacon is the amount of time it takes to the lighthouse to make the remaining 2/3 of a turn, so that you'll see the first beacon again. So, this time is 2T/3
So, the ratio is
So, the time between the second and third beacon is twice as much the time between the first two.
Number of gallons of gAS USED / WEEK = 150/25 = 6 gallons
Cost = 6 * 3 = 18 dollars (answer).
<span>There are 8,904 cycles per minute. This would be determining the amount of cycles per second, which is 148.4. After you know the amount per second, you can then multiply it by the time, which in this case is 60 seconds, or 1 minute. 148.4 cycles per second multiplied by 60 seconds is 8,904 cycles.</span>
Answer:
There are 45 library books in the classroom.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem says that Marvin, Latoya and Abdulla each read 3/7 of the library books in the classroom. If Latoya read 3/7 of the books, we can form a proportion to determine the number of total library books in the classroom.
To solve for 'x', we can either cross-multiply and divide, or we can multiply the denominator by the same factor as the numerator to get a product of 15. In this case, the same factor would be 5, so 7 x 5 = 35. If we cross-multiply:
3x = (15)(7) or x = 35.
