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 area and the circumference of a circle with radius 4 yd
Romashka [77]

First, let's find the area! The formula to find the area of a circle is πr²

πr²

3.14 · 4²

50.24 yds²

Now let's find the circumference. The formula for this is 2πr

2πr

2 · 3.14 · 4

25.12 yds

Hope this helps!

Use the net to find the surface area of the cylinder. 6ft and 7ft
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

A. 84 pi feet^2

Step-by-step explanation:

So the lateral area is the rectangular piece on the net

In order for it to be an actual cylinder the 2 circles are congruent

Therefore the radi, area, circumference ect.. are the same.

So the only missing measurement we need to find the lateral area is the length of the rectangular piece

If you visualize a cylinder, the rectangular piece goes around the perimeter/circumference of the circle

So that means that the length of the rectangle is the circumference of the circle

Circumference = 2*pi*r

2 * pi * 6

= 12 pi

Then 7*12 pi

=84 pi

So the lateral area is 84 pi
