You find your watch gains 2 minutes in 6 hours. How much will it gain in three days

There is 24 hours in one day, if you multiply 6 by 4 it equals 24

So 2 minutes x 4 = 8

So the watch gains 8 minutes in 1 day

Now multiply 8 and the days

8 x 3 = 24

So the watch gains 24 minutes in three days

Hope I helped ;)

You have to set up a proportion for this question. First, you have to know how many hours are in 3 days. There are 72 hours in 3 days, so now you can set up your proportion. 2:6 and _:72. You need to find out what 72 divided by 6 is. it is 12, so now you must multiply 12 by 2, and get 24. So, if your watch has gained 2 minutes in 6 hours, than in 3 days, it will have gained 24 minutes.

Which terms and 45p^4q have a GCF of 9p^3?

vredina [299]

Answer:

The answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3

Step-by-step explanation:

G.C.F of 18p^3 r and 45p^4q is = 9p^3

18p^3r = 2*3*3*p*p*p*r

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

G.C.F of 63p^3 and 45p^4q is = 9p^3

63p^3 = 3*3*7*p*p*p

45p^4q = 3*3*5*p*p*p*q

Thus the G.C.F is 3*3*p*p*p = 9p^3

Therefore the answer is 18p^3r and 63p^3....

Determine the value of c so that f(x) is continuous on the entire real line when

mixer [17]

Answer:

A. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x) = x + 3 for x ≤ -1 and 2x - c for x > -1, for the function to be continuous, the right hand limit of the function must be equal to its left hand limit.

For the left hand limit;

The function at the left hand occurs at x<-1

f-(x) = x+3

f-(-1) = -1+3

f-(-1) = 2

For the right hand limit, the function occurs at x>-1

f+(x) = 2x-c

f+(-1) = 2(-1)-c

f+(-1) = -2-c

For the function f(x) to be continuous on the entire real line at x = -1, then

f-(-1) = f+(-1)

On equating both sides:
