Thulani goes to both the library and the market for 5 more times during the year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thulani goes to the library every 7 days. He goes to the market every 4 days.

We have to calculate the Least Common Multiple (LCM) to analyze the next common day on which he will go to both places.

The factors of 7 are:  1 x 7

The factors of 4 are: 2 x 2

Therefore, the LCM would be = 1 x 7 x 2 x 2

LCM = 28

LCM indicates that Thulani will go to both places on every 28th day.

To calculate the number of times (n) he will go to both places on same day. We can use the formula mentioned below:'

n = \frac{Number of days}{frequency}

Here frequency represents the LCM = 28.

The number of days are:

August: 30 (we are excluding 1st August)

September: 30

October: 31

November: 30

December: 31

Total  = 152

By putting the values in formula, we get

n = \frac{152}{28}

n = 5.42

As, the number of times can only be a whole number. Therefore, Thulani goes to both the library and the market for 5 more times during the year.

KIM [24]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the coordinates of pointD if A(2,-6), B(10,2) and point D divides line segment AB in the ratio of 5:3.

If point D divides the segment AB in the ratio m:n, then

D\left(\dfrac{nx_A+mx_B}{m+n},\dfrac{ny_A+my_B}{m+n}\right)

So

D\left(\dfrac{3\cdot 2+5\cdot 10}{5+3},\dfrac{3\cdot (-6)+5\cdot 2B}{5+3}\right)=D(7,-1)

Point C has the x-coordinate the same as point A and the y-coordinate the same as point D.

Thus, C(2,-1)

Write the Prime factors that 24 and 36 have in common By showing them multiplied together
lakkis [162]

The prime factors that the numbers 24 and 36 have in common are found out to be; 2 × 2 × 3

<h3>How to get prime factors? </h3>

A prime factor of a number is simply factor of that number that is a prime number. This means that any of the prime numbers that can be multiplied to give the original number.

Now, we have;

Prime factors of 36; 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

Prime factors of 24; 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

The prime factors that they have in common will be; 2 × 2 × 3

Check my Work: Factoring for 2y^+9y-18 is (2y-3) (y+6) true or false?
Alexxandr [17]

It is true because when you separate 2y^2 +9y -18, you are supposed to get the factors (2y-3)(y+6), when you multiply this it gives you the first equation, we know this because when we multiply the first term it gives us exactly 2y^2 and if we multiply the last ones it gives you -18, now here is the tricky part, when we multiply the middle part we get 12y and -3y, when we add these up we get 9y, now is that the same middle as in the equation? Yes… then our factors are correct making this true


Hope this helps
