Answer:

<h2>After 72 minutes they all meet again.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • Amos completes a lap in 12 minutes.
  • Peter completes a lap in 9 minutes.
  • Carlos completes it in 8 minutes.

Now, to find the time where the pass one another, we just need to find the Greatest Common Factor. Let's use the divisors and multiples of each number.

12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72.

9: 1, 3, 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72.

8: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72

Now, observe that Amos and Peter pass on another after 3 minutes, then again after 36 minutes.

Peter and Carlos pass one another after 72 minutes.

Actually, they all meet at the same time after 72 minutes.

Therefore, the answer is 72 minutes.

AveGali [126]
For point (1, 1): 1 = 4(1) - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1.
Therefore, the point (1, 1) is on the graph of the equation.

Since the point (0, −3) is a solution to the equation, it is on the graph of the equation.

The graph of the equation is the set of all points that are solutions to the equation.

When you are going from a larger measurement (such as meter) to a smaller measurement (such as centimeter), you will have to multiply by units of ten. Specifically if you are going from m to cm, you will use (n x 10^2) with n being the given number for meters. When you are going from a smaller measurement (such as centimeter) to a larger measurement (such as meter), you will have to divide by units of ten. Specifically if you are going from cm to m, you will use (n / 10^2) with n being the given number for centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We understand rating as frequency or speed of doing something per time (seconds mainly)

{ \green{ \tt{rate = \frac{item \: quantity}{time}  }}} \\

Let's find rate in terms of seconds (words per second)

{ \rm{rate =  \frac{34 \: words}{ (\frac{1}{2} \times 60)  \: seconds} }} \\  \\ { \rm{rate =  \frac{34}{30} }} \\  \\ { \rm{rate = 1.133 \:  \: words \: per \: second}}
