A committee of three students met with the principal today and agreed that Rachel will report to the principal every $9$ days, Jessica every $12$ days, and Richard every $15$ days. What is the least number of days before all three will again report to the principal on the same day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

180 days

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the least number of days all three will again be report to the principal, find the lowest common multiples of all three of them

Rachel will report to the principal every 9 days, Jessica every 12 days, and Richard every 15 days

Rachel (every 9 days) = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, 108, 117, 126, 135, 144, 153, 162, 171, 180

Jessica (every 12 days) = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, 168, 180

Richard (every 15 days) = 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180

The lowest common multiples of 9 days, 12 days, 15 days is 180 days

Therefore, the least number of days all three will report again to the principal is 180 days

-5(4x-2) = -2(3+6x)
what is the answer and how do you get it

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(4x - 2) = -2(3 + 6x)

-20x + 10 = -6 - 12x            Distribute -5 to 4x and -2 and distribute -2 to 3 and

                                           6x

10 = -6 + 8x                        Add 20x to both sides

16 = 8x                                Add 6 to both sides

2 = x                                   Divide 8 to both sides

Answer:

-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(4x-2) = -2(3+6x)

-20x-10 = -6-12x

-10 = -6+8x

-4 = 8x

-0.5 = x

In an algebraic expression what is the product of 15 and c

Answers

Answer:

15c

Step-by-step explanation:

15 multiplyed by c gives 15c

In an algebraic expression, the product of 15 and c can be represented as 15c.

The term "product" refers to the result of multiplying two or more numbers or variables together. In this case, we are multiplying the number 15 by the variable c.

The expression 15c represents 15 multiplied by the value of c. It can be thought of as 15 times an unknown value represented by c. The variable c can represent any real number or algebraic expression, depending on the context of the problem or equation.

For example, if c is equal to 2, then the product 15c would be equal to 15 multiplied by 2, resulting in 30. Similarly, if c is equal to -3, then the product would be -45 since multiplying 15 by -3 gives -45.

A scale drawing of a school bus has a scale of 1 inch to 5 feet. If the length of the school bus is 6 inches on the scale drawing, what is the actual length of the bus? Explain or show your reasoning. *

Answers

Answer: 30 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In Technical drawings scales are used to reduce the size ( scaling ) of drawings so they fit in our drawing sheets. in this example above the drawer stated that 1inch was representing 5feet. what this means is that because we can’t get a drawing sheet which would be 40-100 feet wide we need to rescale our drawing to fit into the available sheet. So by saying 1inch equals 5feet this means the school bus is 30Feet in length.

In the diagram below of triangle KLM, N is a midpoint of KL and P is a midpoint
of LM. If mZPNL = 2x + 61, and MKN = 97 - 7x, what is the measure of
ZPNL?

Answers

Answer:

Solution:

(1/12)^(-2b) * 12^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^-1)^(-2b) (12)^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^2b)(12)^(-2b+2) = 12

12^(2b-2b+2) = 12

12^2 = 12

144 does not equal 12

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle PNL will be equivalent to 69 degrees.

What is triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. Mathematically -

∠x + ∠y + ∠z = 180°

The sum of two sides of a triangle is greater then the third side. Mathematically -

a + b > c

There are different types of triangles such as -

equilateral triangle , scalene triangle , isosceles triangle etc.

Given is a triangle KLM such that N is a midpoint of KL and P is a midpoint of LM.

Triangles LMP and LKM are similar to each other. Therefore, PN will be parallel to MK. So angle PNL will be equal to angle MKN. Therefore -

2x + 61 = 97 - 7x

9x = 97 - 61

9x = 36

x = 4

So, angle PNL will be equal to -

2 x 4 + 61

69 degrees

Therefore, the measure of angle PNL will be equivalent to 69 degrees.

x^2 - 4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 - 6x

g(x) = -2x + 3

(f - g)(x) is the subtraction of the functions, f(x) - g(x)

You need to write it carefully using parentheses for function g(x).

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) =

= x^2 - 6x - (-2x + 3)

Now take care of the parentheses by distributing the negative sign to its left. It will change every sign inside the parentheses.

= x^2 - 6x + 2x - 3

= x^2 - 4x - 3

If 1/5 of the money in a cash box is 30 dollars, how much money is in the cash box?

Answers

Answer:

Money in the cash box is $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = money in the cash box

1/5 of the money in a cash box is 30 dollars

1/5 of x = $30

1/5 * x = 30

1/5x = 30

Divide both sides by 1/5

x = 30 ÷ 1/5

= 30 × 5/1

= 150/1

x = $150

Money in the cash box is $150

The transformations of the graph is a reflection in the x-axis followed by a translation down by 7 units.

Option (C) is correct.

It is required to choose  the transformations of the graph.

What are transformations?

A transformation is a general term for four specific ways to manipulate the shape and/or position of a point, a line, or geometric figure. The original shape of the object is called the Pre-Image and the final shape and position of the object is the Image under the transformation.

Given:

We have a given a graph of y = f(-x) – 7.

The transformations in order are the following:

Reflection over the x-axis.

Horizontal translation of 7 units to the left.

Therefore, the transformations of the graph is a reflection in the x-axis followed by a translation down by 7 units.

1 kilogram of gold bar = 1,000 grams of gold bar

You have 1 kilogram of gold bar

You want each of your friends to get 1 gram

Number of friends that will get 1 gram of gold bar each = 1 kilogram of gold bar / 1 gram

Walter is planning a hiking trip and he estimated the gradient of trail to be 213.6 ft/mile. After hiking and tracking the trail, he found that the trail was actually 202.7 ft/mile. What was his percent error? Did he overestimate or underestimate the gradient?

Answers

Answer: His percent error = 5.38 %

He overestimated the gradient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : [tex]Percent\ error =\dfrac{|Estimated\ value- Actual\ value|}{Actual\ value}\times100[/tex]

Given, Estimated gradient of trail  = 213.6 ft/mile

Actual gradient of trail  =  202.7 ft/mile

Since,  213.6 > 202.7 , that means he overestimated the gradient.

Percent error: [tex]\dfrac{|213.6-202.7|}{202.7}\times100[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{10.9}{202.7}\times100\\\\\approx5.38\%[/tex]
