I'm not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x be the price for a pound of ham
y the price for a pound of cheese
<span>1.3x +0.8y = 11.28 ....(1)
1.5x +1.2y = 14.76 ....(2)
Lets multiply (1) by -1.2
Lets multiply (2) by 0.8
-1.56x -0.96y = -13.536 .....(3)
</span> 1.2x + 0.96y = 11.808 .....(4)
If we add (3) and (4)
-0.36x = -1.728 ............> x = 4.8
We substitute in (1)
1.3(4.8) +0.8y = 11.28
y = 6.3
Price per pound of ham = x = 4.8
Price per pound of cheese = y = 6.3

Answer:
144 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
To do solve this question, we must find the LCM (least common multiple) of 12, 16, and 18.
Let's start by prime factorizing (finding the prime factors) all the numbers.



Now, we must find the greatest quantity of each [prime] number and multiply them together to obtain the least common multiple.
Upon further evaluation of the [prime] factors, we can see that we need four 2s and two 3s. Therefore...

They will be fired together again after 144 seconds.
