Answer:
x - 5 = x - 2 and
x - 5 = 2 - x.
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 5 may be positive or negative so we have:
x - 5 = x - 2
and
x - 5 = - (x - 2)
x - 5 = 2 - x.
Answer: I believe it is A OR B
Step-by-step explanation: BECAUSE IF A⇒B AND B⇒C
THEN ¬A⇒C I THINK ITS A THO
OR ¬A⇒¬C
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.
So we need to compare them at the sam ounches
find the least common multiple (the smallest number that they will both multiply into)
first find the factors and group them all together, delete any repeats
6=2*3
8=2*2*2
least common multiple=2*2*2*3=24
so 6 bags=2.46
multiply by 4 to get 24
24 bags=9.84
so 8 bags=3.20
multply by 3
24 bags=9.60
9.84>9.60 so
the 8 ounce bag is less expensive
