Sally and Joan were able to dust the house in 3 hours together. It takes Joan 10 hours to finish the same job alone. Without help, how long would it take Sally to finish the same job ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours Sally does a job = x

Let the number did hours Joan does a job be equal to y

Sally and Joan were able to dust the house in 3 hours together.

1/x + 1/y = 1/3

It takes Joan 10 hours to finish the same job alone.

Hence,

1/x + 1/10 = 1/3

1/x = 1/3 - 1/10

Least common dey = 30

1/x = 10 - 3/30

1/x = 7/30

Cross Multiply

x × 7 = 30

7x = 30

x = 30/7

x = 4.2857142857 hours

Approximately = 4.3 hours

Without help, it would take Sally 4.3 hours to finish the same job.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Greater, provided the divisor is positive.

It would be more accurate and clearer to say that when dividing a number which is greater than zero by a number between 0 and 1, then the quotient is greater than the dividend.

If the divisor is negative and the dividend is positive, then the quotient is negative (and hence less than the dividend).

1.Find the area of a trapezium with parallel sides of
length 15 cm & 7 cm. The perpendicular distance
between the parallel sides is 6.8 cm.

Answers

Answer:

The area of the trapezium is [tex]74.8\ cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezium:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{b1+b2}{2}h[/tex]

This formula is valid if b1 and b2 are parallel and h is perpendicular to both.

Since the trapezium given in the problem satisfies those conditions, we use the formula with:

b1=15 cm

b2=7 cm

h=6.8 cm

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{15+7}{2}\cdot 6.8[/tex]

[tex]A=74.8\ cm^2[/tex]

The area of the trapezium is [tex]74.8\ cm^2[/tex]

At a model rocket competition, Mrs. Jennings launches a rocket is launched upward
from the ground with an initial velocity of 138 feet per second.
The formula for vertical motion is
h(t) = 0.5at? + vt +s, where the gravitational constant, a, is -32 feet per second squared, v
is the initial velocity, and s is the initial height. Time t is measured in seconds, velocity
v is measured in feet per second, and heights h and s are measured in feet.
Write the function that describes the height, h in feet, of the rocket l seconds into
launch

Answers

Answer:

The function that describes the height, h in feet, of the rocket, t seconds into launch is h = -16·t² + 138·t

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity of the rocket, v = 138 feet per second

The vertical motion formula = h(t) = 0.5·a·t² + v·t + s

The gravitational constant, a = -32 ft./s²

s = The initial height of the rocket

Therefore, he have;

The height of the rocket, t seconds seconds into launch is given as follows;

Height = h = h(t) - s = 0.5·a·t² + v·t

Substituting the known values gives;

h(t) - s = 0.5 × (-32) × t² + 138 × t = -16·t² + 138·t

h = -16·t² + 138·t

The function that describes the height, h in feet, of the rocket, t seconds into launch is h = -16·t² + 138·t.

If the sinø=7/12, what is cosø?

Answers

Answer:

If the sinø=7/12, cosø is [tex]\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given sinФ = 7/12

We need to find cosФ

The basic trigonometric functions of right triangle are:

[tex]sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

We need values of adjacent and hypotenuse to find cosФ

Using Pythagoras theorem we can find the value of adjacent

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2= (Opposite)^2+(Adjacent)^2[/tex]

We have Hypotenuse= 12 and Opposite = 7 (because [tex]sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] and we are given [tex]sin\theta=\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

Inserting values and finding adjacent:

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2= (Opposite)^2+(Adjacent)^2\\(12)^2=(7)^2+(Adjacent)^2\\144=49+(Adjacent)^2\\144-49=(Adjacent)^2\\95=(Adjacent)^2\\\sqrt{(Adjacent)^2} =\sqrt{95}\\Adjacent=\sqrt{95}[/tex]

So, value of Adjacent is [tex]\sqrt{95}[/tex]

Now finding cosФ

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Adjacent = [tex]\sqrt{95}[/tex], hypotenuse = 12

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

So, If the sinø=7/12, cosø is [tex]\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

as the angle is obviously larger than 90°, but not large enough to be 171° as if it were so it would be closer to a straight line (since 171° is closer to 180°) hence, the answer is 141° as it is the only option in between.

Diamonds have a density of 3.5 g/cm3. How big is a diamond that has a mass of 0.10 g?

Answers

Answer:x = 0.028571 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

I the density is constant and a mass of 3.5 g takes up 1 cubic centimeter, how much volume will a mass of 0.20 g take (in cubit centimeters)?

So, let x be the volume in cubit centimeters.

   the mass is to the volume is as the mass is to the volume

        3.5g /(1 cm3)  =  0,1g / (x cm3)

Cross-multiply to get:

       3.5x = 0.1

         x = 0.1 / 3.5                (divide both sides by 3.5)

         x = 0.028571 cm3      (you probably should round this, but diamonds are expensive !)

You are deciding whether to buy a car for ​$ or to accept a lease agreement. The lease entails a ​$ fee plus monthly payments of ​$ for months. Under the lease​ agreement, you are responsible for service on the car and insurance. At the end of the​ lease, you may purchase the car for ​$. Complete parts a through c below.

Answers

Answer:

a. The correct option is C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

b. The correct option is A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $47,400.

c. The correct option is D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore given as follows:

You are deciding whether to buy a car for $21,000 or to accept a lease agreement. The lease entails a $800 fee plus monthly payments of $250 for 48 months. Under the lease agreement, you are responsible for service on the car and insurance. At the end of the lease, you may purchase the car for $9000. Complete parts a through c below.

a. Should the cost of service and insurance determine which option you choose?

A. Yes, because you probably don't have to pay for services when you buy the car.

B. No, because it is cheaper to lease the car than to buy it.

C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

D. Yes, because you get a discount on your insurance when you lease the car.

b. Does the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement exceed the cost of purchasing the car at the outset?

A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $___ (fill in the blank)

B. No, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $___(fill in the blank)

c. What are some possible advantages of leasing the car?

A. You can sell the car whenever you want and you can make money on the car when you sell it.

B. The insurance costs less and you get a service discount.

C. You can give the car back whenever you want and you can get a new car whenever you want.

D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

a. Should the cost of service and insurance determine which option you choose?

No matter the option, wither buy or lease, that is chosen, the car will still have to be serviced and the insurance cost will have to be paid for. Therefore, the cost of service and insurance should not determine which option to choose.

Therefore, the correct option is C. No, because you will probably have to pay for service and insurance with either plan.

b. Does the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement exceed the cost of purchasing the car at the outset?

From part a above, it is stated that the cost of service and insurance should not determine which option to choose.  Therefore, the cost of service and insurance should not be included in calculating the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement.

This implies the only relevant costs to use in calculating the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement are the $800 monthly fee and the $9,000 cost of purchase at the end of the lease.

Therefore, the total cost of purchasing the car at the end of the lease agreement can be calculated as follows:

Total lease cost = (Monthly fee * Number of months) + Cost of Purchase = ($800 * 48) + $9,000 = $38,400 + $9,000 = $47,400

Therefore, the correct option is A.Yes, the total cost of the car at the end of the lease is $47,400.

c. What are some possible advantages of leasing the car?

Under a lease agreement, there is no need to pay all the money required to buy an item at once. The leasing of an item also enables one to examine the item in details to decide whether to buy it or not at the end of the lease agreement.

Based on the explanation above, the correct option is D. Not all of the money is needed up front and you have years to decide if you want to buy the car.
