Answer: D. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Brandon mows his lawn once every 5 days.

Thomas mows his lawn every 3 days.

If they are all mowing there lawn today, then the number of days after which they will be mowing there lawn together again=  LCM (5, 3)

[LCM= Least common multiple]

Since 5 and 3 are co primes (having no common factor other than 1),

so LCM(5,3)= 5 x 3 = 15

Therefore, they will be mowing there lawn together again after 15 days .

Hence, the correct answer is D. 15 .

The perimeter of a right triangle is 60 feet and the area is 150 square feet. If the lengths of the sides of the triangle are ea
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

B. 600 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Perimeter of a right triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c

The perimeter of a right triangle is 60 feet

If the lengths of the sides of the triangle are each multiplied by 10, what is the perimeter of the new right triangle?

Hence, the perimeter of the new right triangle = 10 × 60ft

= 600ft

Option B is the correct Option.

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.–x2 + 5x = 3
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:

- x² + 5x - 3 = 0

where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.

Quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}

Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.

\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}

=

\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}

Does anybody know how to do time with exponential decay
My name is Ann [436]
<span>From the message you sent me:

when you breathe normally, about 12 % of the air of your lungs is replaced with each breath. how much of the original 500 ml remains after 50 breaths

If you think of number of breaths that you take as a time measurement, you can model the amount of air from the first breath you take left in your lungs with the recursive function

b_n=0.12\times b_{n-1}

Why does this work? Initially, you start with 500 mL of air that you breathe in, so b_1=500\text{ mL}. After the second breath, you have 12% of the original air left in your lungs, or b_2=0.12\timesb_1=0.12\times500=60\text{ mL}. After the third breath, you have b_3=0.12\timesb_2=0.12\times60=7.2\text{ mL}, and so on.

You can find the amount of original air left in your lungs after n breaths by solving for b_n explicitly. This isn't too hard:

b_n=0.12b_{n-1}=0.12(0.12b_{n-2})=0.12^2b_{n-2}=0.12(0.12b_{n-3})=0.12^3b_{n-3}=\cdots

and so on. The pattern is such that you arrive at

b_n=0.12^{n-1}b_1

and so the amount of air remaining after 50 breaths is

b_{50}=0.12^{50-1}b_1=0.12^{49}\times500\approx3.7918\times10^{-43}

which is a very small number close to zero.</span>
