Answer:

The answer to the question is

30 ° east of Greenwich Mean Time

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we have the given variables

Current Greenwich Mean Time = 10.00 AM

Location of the Sun at the current longitude = zenith

Supposed correct time when clock is at zenith = 12 noon or 12.00 pm

Time difference, or correction required = 10.00 a. m. - 12 p. m. = 2 hours leading

As there are 24 hours in a day one hour of the difference in time is equivalent to 360/24 or 15 ° and as the Sun is already at its zenith at the location then the location is eastwards of Greenwich Mean time that is,

15 ° × 2 = 30 ° east of Greenwich Mean Time

7 - 3x = 3 ( 3- x ) - 2<br><br> Please help &amp; show how you got to the answer
Leokris [45]
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
7−3x=3(3−x)−2
7+−3x=(3)(3)+(3)(−x)+−2(Distribute)
7+−3x=9+−3x+−2
−3x+7=(−3x)+(9+−2)(Combine Like Terms)
−3x+7=−3x+7
−3x+7=−3x+7
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
−3x+7+3x=−3x+7+3x
7=7
Step 3: Subtract 7 from both sides.
7−7=7−7
0=0
So all real numbers

Three girls download a total of 36 songs on their iPods. Jane downloaded twice as many as Inez and since Tracy wanted to have th
lesya692 [45]
J + i + t = 36
j = 2i
t = j + 1.....t = 2i + 1

(2i + 1) + i + (2i) = 36
5i + 1 = 36
5i = 36 - 1
5i = 35
i = 35/5
i = 7 <=== Inez downloaded 7 songs

j = 2i = 2(7) = 14 <==Jane downloaded 14 songs
t = 2i + 1 = 2(7) + 1 = 15 <== Tracy downloaded 15 songs
