Answer:

1.30 p.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

The factory whistle blowed at 1:00 p.M, and it blows every 30 minutes, so it will blow again at 1:30 p.M.

The clock tower chimed at 1.00 p.M., and it chimes every 15 minutes, so it will chime again at 1:15 p.M, and after that, it will chime again at 1:30 p.M.

So, you will hear them both at the same time at 1:30 p.M.

We can also solve this problem using LCM:

the least commom multiple between 15 and 30 is 30, so we just need to sum 30 to the inicial time (1:00 p.M.), so the time they will "find each other" again is 1.30 p.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculatdd by applyinthe g Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2= c^2

12^2 + x^2= 12.5^2

144+ x^2= 156.25

x^2= 156.25-144

x^2= 12.25

x= √12.25

x= 3.5

Hence the distance between the ladder and the house is 3.5 ft

Solve for c.<br><br> 2(c +1) = 10
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

c=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(c+1)=10

(2)(c)+(2)(1)=10(Distribute)

2c+2=10

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2c+2−2=10−2

2c=8

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2c

2 = 8
