Answer: Each Swiss Guard will spend 1 hour 36 minutes on guard duty in one day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The Vatican has to be guarded 24 hours a day.

Total Swiss Guards  = 15

If they split each day's guard duty equally, the time they will spend on guard duty in one day = (24)÷ 15

= \dfrac{24}{15} hours

=\dfrac85 hours

=1\dfrac35 hours

= \text{1 hour }\dfrac35\times60\text{ minutes}

= \text{ 1 hour }36\text{ minutes}

Hence, each Swiss Guard will spend 1 hour 36 minutes on guard duty in one day.

Which best describes the meaning of the statement if A then B
Oliga [24]

Answer:

a => b   \equiv   ( \neg a   \ \lor   \ b )

Step-by-step explanation:

You can understand the statement from many perspectives, but in terms of proposition logic it is best to understand it as   "negation of a" or "  b" in mathematical terms is written like this

a => b   \equiv   ( \neg a   \ \lor   \ b )

You can show that they are logically equivalent because they have the same truth table.

Using sigma notation write the geographic series: 6+12+24+48+96
Alika [10]

Answer:

$$\sum_{n=1}^{5} 6(2^{n-1}) $$

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 12 + 24 + 48 + 96 =

= 6 + 6 * 2 + 6 * 4 + 6 * 8 + 6 * 16

= 6 + 6 * 2^2 + 6 * 2^2 + 6 * 2^3 + 6 * 2 * 4

= 6 * 2^(n - 1)

$$\sum_{n=1}^{5} 6(2^{n-1}) $$

The length, with, and height of a rectangular prism can be represented by the expressions (x+3),(x+7),and(x-1). Write an express
joja [24]

Answer: 6x² + 36x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:2 faces  (x + 3) by (x + 7), area of both these faces 2(x+3)*(x + 7)

2 faces  (x + 3) by (x - 1), area of both these faces 2(x+3)*(x - 1)

2 faces  (x -1 ) by (x + 7), area of both these faces 2(x-1)*(x + 7)

Whole surface area is

2(x+3)*(x + 7) + 2(x+3)*(x - 1) + 2(x-1)*(x + 7) =

=2(x² + 3x +7x +21) + 2(x² +3x -x - 3) + 2(x² - x +7x -7)=

=2x² + 20x +42 + 2x² + 4x - 6 + 2x² + 12x -14 =

= 6x² + 36x + 22

Point-Slope Form<br> *See photo*
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation 'y = 3x + ?' intersects the point (1, -2). This means that when x = 1, y = -2 in out equation above. To solve this just plug in the x and y values to get '?'.

y = 3x + ?\\-2 = 3(1) + ?\\-5 = ?

Now that we know '?' is -5, we write it back into slope intercept form, so our final answer is y = 3x - 5
