Remember when you learning about the "Least Common
Multiple" and you wondered when in the world you would
ever need to use it ?
Well, here you are ! Hello !
The next time they will cross the starting line together is the
LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 30 and 40 .
Do you remember how to find it ?
Here's one easy way:
Count by 30s until you come to a number that's divisible by 40 .
Laura's first lap. . . . . . . . 30 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's two laps . . . . . . . 60 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's three laps. . . . . . 90 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's four laps. . . . . . 120 seconds . . . divisible by 40
After 120 seconds, Laura has completed four laps,
Shelby has completed only three laps.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Swap the sides of the inequality and flip the inequality sign:

Divide both side of the inequality by -6 and flip the inequality sign:

Terms : 12x, 3, 13, 4x
Like Terms : 12x and 4x, 3 and 13
Coefficients: 12, 4
Constants : 3, 13
F(6) = 6(5 - 6) = 6(-1) = -6
f(6.1) = 6.1(5 - 6.1) = 6.1(-1.1) = -6.71
f'(6) ≈ (-6.71 - (-6))/(6.1 - 6) = -0.71/0.1 = -7.1
