Answer:

Time = 11\frac{2}{3}\ min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Security\ A = 2\ mins, 20\ secs

Security\ B = 1\ mins, 40\ secs

Required

After how many minutes, will they round together

First, convert the given time to minutes

Security\ A = 2\ mins, 20\ secs

Security\ A = 2\ mins+ 20\ secs

Security\ A = 2\ mins+ \frac{20}{60}\ min

Security\ A = 2\ mins+ \frac{1}{3}\ min

Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}\ min

Security\ B = 1\ mins, 40\ secs

Security\ B = 1\ mins+ 40\ secs

Security\ B = 1\ mins+ \frac{40}{60}\ min

Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}\ min

So, we have:

Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}\ min

Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}\ min

List out the multiples of the time of both security personnel take round.

Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}min,\ 4\frac{2}{3}min,\ 7min,\ 9\frac{1}{3}min,\ 11\frac{2}{3}min...

Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}min,\ 3\frac{1}{3}min,\ 5min,\ 6\frac{2}{3}min,\ 8\frac{1}{3}min,\ 10min\ ,11\frac{2}{3}min,...

In the above lists, the common time is:

Time = 11\frac{2}{3}\ min

<em>This implies that they go on round after </em>11\frac{2}{3}\ min<em></em>

Angle x and y are complementary. Angle x is supplementary to a 128º angle.
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = 52

y = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle x is supplementary to a 128º angle.

Supplementary angles add to 180

x+128 = 180

Subtract 128 from each side

x+128-128 = 180-128

x =52

Angle x and y are complementary.  

Complementary angles add to 90

x+y =90

52+y =90

Subtract 52 from each side

52-52 +y = 90-52

y = 38

Determine which property is demonstrated below;
aniked [119]

Answer:

  symmetric property

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>symmetric property</em> is the one that tells you A=B means also B=A.

The obfuscating factor in this question is the renaming of angle SZW to angle WZS. Both names refer to the same angle.
