Answer:
27 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to calculate the minimun common multiple between the three times.
1 week = 1^1 week
9 weeks = 3^2 weeks
27 weeks = 3^3 weeks
You take the 1 and the 3 with the biggest exponent and multiply. In this case is 1^1*3^3 = 27. So, in 27 weeks the pkanets will all be in alignment.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the largest of 3 consecutive integers such that the sum of the first and third is equal to three times the second?
3 consecutive angles
= x, x + 1, x + 2
We are told in the question that:
the sum of the first and third is equal to three times the second
a + c = 3b
x + x + 2 = 3(x + 1)
2x + 2 = 3x + 3
3x - 2x = 2 - 3
x = -1
The largest of the three numbers is the third number
= x + 2
x = -1
x + 2 = -1 + 2
The third and largest number is 1
Answer:
2/0 or infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
First one: x = all real numbers
Second one: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
for the first one
given 8x+10=2(4x+5) we need to isolate the variable (x) using inverse operations
step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis ( 4x and 5 )
2 * 4x = 8x
5 * 2 = 10
now we have 8x + 10 = 8x + 10
step 2 subtract 8x from each side
8x - 8x = 0
8x - 8x = 0
now we have 10 = 10
subtract 10 from each side
10 - 10 = 0
10 - 10 = 0
we're left with 0 = 0 meaning that all real numbers are solutions
For the second one
given 3x-8=2(x-4) once again we need to isolate the variable using inverse operations
step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis (x - 4)
2 *x = 2x
2 * -4 = -8
now we have 3x - 8 = 2x - 8
step 2 add 8 to each side
-8 + 8 = 0
-8 + 8 = 0
now we have 2x = 3x
step 3 subtract 2x from each side
3x - 2x = x
2x - 2x = 0
we're left with x = 0
