A pro baseball team is having a promotion in which every 10th fan that enters the stadium gets a free hat and every 12th person
mixas84 [53]
Multiples of 10 = 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
This means the 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, ... fan will get a free hat.
Multiples of 12 = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60
This means the 12th, 24th, 36th, 48th, 60th, ... fan will get a free shirt.
So the 60th fan will receive both a hat and a shirt.
Meaning 60 fans will come to the stadium before a fan receives both a hat and a shirt.

The Niagara Falls ferris wheel has a diameter of 48 meters, and one revolution takes 2.25 minutes to complete. Riders can see Ni
Yanka [14]

The time intervals when the riders could see Niagara falls are; 0.834 < t < 1.416 and (3.084, 3.666)

<h3>How to interpret Cycle Graphs?</h3>

From the diagram attached, we can say that;

Period = 2π/k

where;

k = 2π/2.25

k = 8π/9

Thus;

h(t) = -(48/2) cos (8π/9)t + ((48/2) + 0.5)

h(t) = -24cos (8π/9)t + 24.5

Riders can see Niagara falls if they are higher than 41 meters above the ground. Thus;

41 = -24cos (8π/9)t + 24.5

41 - 24.5 = -24cos (8π/9)t

16.5 = -24cos (8π/9)t

-0.6875 = cos (8π/9)t

cos⁻¹0.6875 = (8π/9)t

t = 0.834 min

Thus, time interval is between;

0.834 < t < (2.25 - 0.834)

⇒ 0.834 < t < 1.416 and

(2.25 + 0.834) < t < (2.25 + 1.416)

⇒ (3.084, 3.666)

The greater of two consecutive EVEN numbers is 40 less than twice the smaller number. Find the larger number
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

<h3>           44</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

z -  some integer

2z - first given even integer (the smaller one)

2z+2 - even integer consecutive to 2z  (the larger one)

2(2z)    - twice the smaller number

2(2z) - 40    - the number 40 less than twice the smaller number

2(2z) - 40 = 2z + 2

4z - 40 = 2z + 2

2z = 42

 

2z+2 = 42+2 = 44

check:

2(2z)-40 = 2(42)-40 = 84-40 = 44
