4 bells toll together at 9 am. They toll after 7, 8. 11 and 12 seconds respectively. How many times will they toll together agai

Svetach [21]

Answer:

5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need to do here is to find the lowest common multiple of 7,8,11 and 12

This is;

1848

Now, let’s calculate the number of seconds in 3 hours

In 1 hour, we have 3600 seconds

In 3 hours, this will be;

3600 * 3 = 10,800 seconds

So, to find the number of times in which all 4 will toll together, we need to know the number of 1848 seconds in 10,800 seconds

Mathematically, that will be;

10,800/1848 = 5.844

Our answer will be 5 times however

This is because the sixth time they would have sounded together would be more than the 3 hours time frame

How to solve an expression with variables in the exponents?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

use logarithms

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...

a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents

(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs

but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...

x +3 = b^(x -6)

There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

__

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.

In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.

Given sin(−θ)= −1/4 and tanθ= 15√15 . What is the value of cosθ ?

dangina [55]

$\sin = \frac{y}{r} \\ \\ \tan = \frac{y}{x} \\ \\ \cos = \frac{x}{r} \\ \\ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} = {r}^{2}$

$- \sin = \frac{ - 1 \: = \: y}{4 \: = \: r}$
$15 \sqrt{15} = \frac{1}{x} \\ \\ x = .017$
$\cos = \frac{.017}{4} = .0043$
