B. X,2X,3X cuz the sum of X and 2X is 3X
Answer:
<em>It will occur zero times between midnight and one o'clock.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Least Common Multiple (LCM)</u>
Three events keep James from sleeping: his clock ticking every 20 seconds, a tap dripping every 15 seconds, and his dog snoring every 27 seconds.
All three events happened together at midnight. They will happen together again the first time the numbers 20, 15, and 27 have a common multiple. This is the LCM.
List the prime factors of each number:
20: 2,2,5
15: 3,5
27: 3,3,3
Now multiply all the factors the maximum number of times they appear:
LCM=2*2*3*3*3*5=540
(a) All the events will happen together again after 540 minutes.
(b) Since 540 minutes = 9 hours, this event won't happen again until 9 am. Thus, it will occur zero times between midnight and one o'clock.
11. The two angles are vertical angles, which mean they are equal to each other.
14x - 5 = 13x
Add 5 to both sides:
14x = 13x + 5
Subtract 13x from both sides:
x = 5
12. The two angles are supplementary and when added together need to equal 180 degrees.
5x -20 + 3x = 180
Combine like terms:
8x -20 = 180
Add 20 to both sides:
8x = 200
Divide both sides by 8:
x = 200 /8
x = 25

Answer:
About $1627.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15.50 x 35 = 542.5
542.5 x 3 (the amount of weeks in a month) = $1627.5
