Answer:

225\:\text{minutes}

Step-by-step explanation:

To navigate through this problem, start by finding how much each senator can complete in a fixed amount of time. I'll choose 10 as it's the greatest common factor of 30 and 50.

In 10 minutes, the junior senator can complete \frac{10}{50}=\frac{1}{5} of the labyrinth.

In 10 minutes, the senior senator can complete \frac{10}{30}=\frac{1}{3} of the labyrinth.

Therefore, working together, they can complete \frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{15} of the labyrinth in 10 minutes. Thus, it will take them \frac{15}{8}\cdot 10 \text{ minutes}=18.75\:\text{minutes} to complete one labyrinth.

The amount of time it take them to complete 12 labyrinths is then 18.75\cdot 12 =\boxed{225\:\text{minutes}}

an obtuse triangle has the side as x-3 on the left and then the right says x then the bottom says x+6 can you find the perimeter
user100 [1]

Answer:

P = (x-3) + (x+6) + x

P = 3x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a figure, you just need to add all sides together. First, you need to set up an equation that adds all sides together. Then, you would need to combine like terms (x+x+x=3x); -3+6=3. So you would take 3x and add 3, since 3 is positive.

Hope this helps!
