Answer:
A) 420 seconds = 7 minutes
B) 8 times
Step-by-step explanation:
A) After how many second would all three things happen together again?
Solution:
His clock ticked every 5 seconds , a tap was dripping every 7 seconds and his pet dog snored every 12 seconds. It all happens simultaneously = 5*7*12=420 seconds
B) How many times would all three things happen together again between midnight and one o'clock
Since all these events happen together after every 420 sec = 7 mins and there are 60 mins between midnight and 1 o'çlock , thus 60/7 = 8 times ....
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
2(x+8) = 40
Discussion:
Rewrite the original Question as
"
Twice the (sum of a number and 8) is 40" =>
2 ( x + 8 ) = 40 =>
2 (x+8) = 40
which is the third bullet point from the top
Thank you,
MrB
Q+2=-6q+3+120
Q+2= -6q+123
+6q +6q
7q+2=123
-2. -2
7q =121
Divide by 7 on each sides to get
q= About 17
