Answer:

7 times during the first 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1\ min=60\ sec

so

15\ min=15(60)=900\ sec

Decompose the numbers 18 and 42 in prime factors

we know that

18=(2)(3^2)

42=(2)(3)(7)

Find the least common multiple (LCM)

The LCM is

(2)(3^2)(7)=126\ sec

we need to find all multiples of 126 that are less than or equal 900.

126*1=126\ sec\\126*2=252\ sec\\126*3=378\ sec\\126*4=504\ sec\\126*5=630\ sec\\126*6=756\ sec\\126*7=882\ sec

therefore

7 times during the first 15 minutes

A and B are dependent events.
The general probabilities of each event to happen separately is 36% for event A and 25% for event B. When considering that Chris passes one before passing the other, indicates that whether he gets the first light open or not will affect if he gets the other one also open or not. This can even be seen by noticing how the probability of Chris getting both red lights is 9%, a much inferior probability then considering both lights separately which means that one event has influence over the other.

Unit 7:Polygons & Quadrilaterals Homework 4: Rhombi and squares​
iogann1982 [59]

Based on the quadrilateral given, the values of the missing measures will be:

  • VU = 15
  • SU = 21.21
  • TV = 21.21
  • SW = 10.61

<h3>Solving quadrilateral.</h3>

A quadrilateral simply means a polygon that has four sides, edges and vertices.

Based on the information given, SU = TV and this will be:

= ✓450 = 21.21

SW = 21.21/2 = 10.61

Also, for the second shape, the values will be:

OM = 46; PN = 23, ON = 46; MN = 46.

Is this table linear or exponential what us the slope and what is the equation ?​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

this table is exponential

Step-by-step explanation:

the way we can tell this is because we can find a common ratio of 4. we know this because linear tables have a common difference exponential tables have a common ratio. i found this answer by dividing 32,768 and 8,192

32,768/8,192 = 4

you can find a linear function by subtracting point 1 and point 2.
