Considering the least common factor of 15 and 18, it is found that they will depart from the central station at the same time at 11 AM.
<h3>How to find the time it takes for periodic events to repeat at the same time?</h3>
To find the time that passes between the events happening at the same time, we need to find the least common multiple of the periods.
In this problem, the periods are of 15 and 18, hence their lcm is found as follows:
15 - 18|2
15 - 9|3
5 - 3|3
5 - 1|5
1 - 1
Hence:
lcm(15,18) = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 90 minutes.
They will depart from the central station at the same time in 90 minutes from 9:30 AM, hence at 11 AM.

Answer:
<h2><em>
2x-4</em></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle = Length * Width
Given parameters
Area A = 8x2 – 10x – 12
Length of the rectangle = 4x+3
Required
Width of the rectangle.
Substituting the given parameters into the formula
8x2 – 10x – 12 = (4x+3)*width
width = 8x2 – 10x – 12
/4x+3
S
Factorizing the numerator
8x² – 10x – 12
= 2(4x²-5x-6)
= 2(4x²-8x+3x-6)
= 2(4x(x-2)+3(x-2))
= 2(4x+3)(x-2)
Width = 2(4x+3)(x-2)/4x+3
Width = 2(x-2)
Width = 2x-4
<em>Hence the width of the rectangle is 2x-4</em>

Geometry is another subject in which symmetry is important. <span />
Given:
October: 8 3/8 inches
September : 60% less rain fell than in October.
This means that only 40% rain fell in September based on the amount of rain that fell in October.
8 3/8 ⇒ (8*8)+3/8 = 67/8
40% is 4/10
67/8 * 4/10 = 268/80 = 3 28/80 or 3 7/20 or 3.35
28 ÷ 2 = 14
80 ÷ 2 = 40
14 ÷ 2 = 7
40 ÷ 2 = 20
In September 3 7/20 inches or 3.35 inches of rain fell.
