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.

Find the slope of the line between (1,5)and (3,9)
Volgvan
We can use the points in either order and you will still get the same slope. I usually solve in order that is given. So the first coordinates I label (x1,y1) and the second is (x2,y2).

Slope=m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(9-5)/(3-1)=4/2=2

Slope is 2.

Write an equation of the line that passes me that passes through (2,-5) and is parrallel to the line 2y=3x+10
Otrada [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel means same slope/gradient

2y = 3x + 10

y = 1.5x + 5

let equation be y = 1.5x + b

sub (2, -5)

-5 = 1.5(2) + b

b = -8

therefore y = 1.5x - 8
