Answer:

45 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Find LCM(15,9). First factor both numbers:

15=3\cdot 5\\ \\9=3\cdot 3

So,

LCM(15,9)=3\cdot 5\cdot 3=45

This means that the length of the side of the smallest square area that can be covered by these tiles is 45 cm.

Practically, you can put 3 tiles in a row (to make 3 lenghts of 15 cm each that add up to 45 cm) and put such 5 rows (to make 5 lengths of 9 cm that add up to 45 cm).

How to isolate scalars from a matrix
I am Lyosha [343]
The technique of matrix isolation involves condensing the substance to be studied with a large excess of inert gas (usually argon or nitrogen) at low temperature to form a rigid solid (the matrix). The early development of matrix isolation spectroscopy was directed primarily to the study of unstable molecules and free radicals. The ability to stabilise reactive species by trapping them in a rigid cage, thus inhibiting intermolecular interaction, is an important feature of matrix isolation. The low temperatures (typically 4-20K) also prevent the occurrence of any process with an activation energy of more than a few kJ mol-1. Apart from the stabilisation of reactive species, matrix isolation affords a number of advantages over more conventional spectroscopic techniques. The isolation of monomelic solute molecules in an inert environment reduces intermolecular interactions, resulting in a sharpening of the solute absorption compared with other condensed phases. The effect is, of course, particularly dramatic for substances that engage in hydrogen bonding. Although the technique was developed to inhibit intermolecular interactions, it has also proved of great value in studying these interactions in molecular complexes formed in matrices at higher concentrations than those required for true isolation.

The sales tax in New Jersey is 6%. For a $16 book, what will the total cost be, including sales tax?
Rasek [7]
<span>The sales tax in New Jersey is 6%. For a $16 book, what will the total cost be, including sales tax?
Solutions:
=> 16 dollars is the amount of book
=> 6% is the sales tax which is equals to (6% / 100% = 0.06)
Let’s follow the formula to get the total amount to be paid.
=> 16 dollars * .06 = .96 dollars
Now, let’s add this together:
=> .96 + 16 dollars = 16.96 dollars.</span>

The sale price for a computer is $450. the original price was first discounted by 25% and then was discounted an additional 20%.
pishuonlain [190]
Sale price = $450
original price = 25%y
dicount = +20%

solution = $450 × 45%
= $202.5
= $652.5
