Answer:

a) 8

b) 2 1/4 hours

c) 4 7/8 hours

d) 4 1/8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a) LCD to be used to solve this problem is calculated as the Lowest common denominator of the above mixed fractions.

We have 1 1/2 hours and 1 1/8 hours

The lowest common denominator is the denominator calculated by

Multiplying the two denominators together and dividing by the common factor of the two denominators

Hence , we have

2 × 8 = 16

The common factor of 2 and 8 = 2

LCD = 16/2 = 8

b) How long did Matt drive?

We are told that Matt drove twice as long as John

John drove for 1 1/8 hours

Hence, the number of hours that Matt drove for =2 × 1 1/8

= 2 × 9/8 = 9/4 hours = 2 1/4 hours

c) How long the Sam, John and Matt drive ?

We are told in the question that

Sam drove for 1 1/2 hours

John drove for 1 1/8 hours

Matt drove for 2 1/4 hours

We would sum up the number of hours that each of them drove.

1 1/2 + 1 1/8 + 2 1/4

The Lowest common multiple of denominators is 8

= (1 + 1 + 2)( 4 + 1 +2/8)

= 4(7/8)

= 4 7/8 hours

d) How many hours is left for Bob to drive

We are told that the entire journey = 9 hours

The number of hours Sam, John and Matt drove for has been calculated in question c as 4 7/8 hours

The number of hours Bob will drive for is calculated as

9 hours - 4 7/8 hours

= 4 1/8 hours

The external angle of a regular polygon is 200 . How many sides does it have ? What is the measure of each interior angle? What
Zanzabum

Answer:

An 18 sided shape.

Since the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360° and an angle of the regular polygon is 20°, then 360° / 20° is the number of sides. We find the answer = 18, an octadecagon

-5v^2+31v-6 factor the polynomial
jeka57 [31]

The first thing he has to do is take that "minus" sign through the parentheses containing the second polynomial. Some students find it helpful to put a " 1 " in front of the parentheses, to help them keep track of the minus sign. Here's what the subtraction looks like, when working horizontally.
