Andrea and Barry are sharing a bag of popcorn at the movies. By himself,
Barry can eat the whole bag of popcorn in 30 minutes. Andrea takes 20
minutes to eat the whole bag. If they both eat popcorn at their usual rates,
approximately how long will it take them to finish the bag of popcorn?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula

1/a+ 1/b = 1/c  where a and b are the times alone and c is the time together

1/20 + 1/30 = 1/c

Multiply by the common denominator to clear the fractions

60c(1/20 + 1/30 = 1/c)

3c +2c = 60)

5c = 60

Divide by 5

5c/5 = 60/5

c = 12

12 minutes

Answer 2

Answer: 12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this kind of a problem, which is called a work problem, it's important to understand the following idea:

Since Barry can eat a bag of popcorn in 30 minutes, we know that in 1 minute, Barry can eat 1/30 of the bag of popcorn and in 2 minutes, Barry can eat 2/30 of the bag of popcorn. Therefore, in t minutes, Barry can eat t/30 of the bag of popcorn. The same thing applies for Andrea. In t minutes, Andrea can eat t/20 of the bag of popcorn.

Now to solve the problem, we use the following formula:

Part of Job done by Barry + Part of Job done by Andrea = 1 job done

The part of job done by Barry is t/30 and the part

of the job done by Andrea is t/20.

So we have t/30 + t/20 = 1.

To solve for t, multiply both sides by the common denominator of 60.

So we get 2t + 3t = 60 or 5t = 60 so t = 12.

So Barry and Andrea can eat 1 bag together in 12 minutes.

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 18 feet. If a square whose sides have the same length as one side of the triangle is built, what will be the area of the square?

Answers

Answer:

36 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

equilateral means all sides are equally long.

a triangle has 3 sides.

in our case they are all equally long.

and their sum (all 3 sides together) is the perimeter

P = 18 = 3 × side length

side length = 18/3 = 6 ft

a square with the same side length (6) had then an area of

side length × side length = 6×6 = 6² = 36 ft²

it is important to remember : a length is measured e.g. in feet (ft). an area is then meshed in square-feet (ft²). it is important to add this to the calculated numbers to express the right dimension of these numbers.

A to B is 420 mile away, A travels 40 mph and B travels 80 mph. they toward to each other. how many hour will they meet ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope these are people in vehicles travelling toward each other.

80 mh * t + 40 mph * t = 420 miles

The two vehicles are going to travel a total of 420 miles. B will cover a lot more ground than A, but together they will make 420 miles

80t + 40t = 420

120t = 420

t = 420/120

t = 3.5

So after driving 3.5 hours, the two cars will meet.

Answers

Answer:

(g∘f)(x) = -20x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

(g∘f)(x) simply means g(f(x))

We are given;

f(x) = -5x + 4

g(x) = 4x + 6

Thus;

(g∘f)(x) = 4(-5x + 4) + 6

(g∘f)(x) = -20x + 16 + 6

Answer:

x = 117km

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 18 km

q = 90% = 90/100 = 0.9


a2 = a1 • q = 18 • 0.9 = 81/5 = 16.2 km

a3 = a2 • q = 16.2 • 0.9 = 729/50 = 14.58 km

n = 10

x = a1 • q^n - 1/q - 1 = 18 • 0.9^10 - 1/0.9 - 1 = 117km



Answer:

Solution given:

since Rosie walked 18 km INA first day.

so

first term[a]=18km

again

she walked 90% of what she walked the day before which means

common ratio decreasing

common ratio[r]90%=0.9

sum of 10th day[tex]S_{10}[/tex]=?

no of term (n)=10

now

we have

[tex]Sum_{10}=\frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

substituting value:

=[tex]\frac{18(0.9^{10}-1)}{0.9-1}[/tex]

=117.28km

in nearest 10 it is 117km

the total distance Rosie had travelled by the end of 10 days is 117km.

===========================================================

Explanation:

I recommend drawing the two triangles as shown below. The diagram isn't to scale, but all that matters is that we get the general idea down.

Your teacher gave you this info:

angle A = angle E (red angles)angle C = angle F (blue angles)

These two pieces of info are enough to prove that triangle ABC is similar to triangle EDF. Use the angle angle (AA) similarity theorem to do this proof. The order of the lettering matters because it helps us see how the letters pair up.

A and E go firstB and D in the middleC and F go last

Since the triangles are similar, the scale factor to go from ABC to EDF is EF/AC = 2/6 = 1/3

In other words, the side lengths of triangle EDF are exactly 1/3 that of the corresponding lengths of ABC. Or we can reverse things to say the sides of ABC are 3 times longer than the sides of EDF.

----------------------

Use this scale factor to help determine the missing length ED.

(ED)/(AB) = scale factor

(ED)/(AB) = 1/3

(ED)/(3.3) = 1/3

ED = (1/3)*(3.3)

ED = 1.1

Note how ED/AB = (1.1)/(3.3) = 11/33 = 1/3

----------------------

While we don't know how long sides BC or DF are, we are told that DF is 3.2 units shorter compared to BC.

This means

DF = BC - 3.2

DF = x - 3.2

Then we can say,

(DF)/(BC) = scale factor

(x-3.2)/(x) = 1/3

3(x - 3.2) = x*1

3x - 9.6 = x

3x - x = 9.6

2x = 9.6

x = (9.6)/2

x = 4.8

So BC is x = 4.8 units long and DF is x-3.2 = 4.8-3.2 = 1.6 units long

E) Natasha's parents want to support Natasha by saving $5000 for her college. They searched up for some investment options and came up with two best ones o 4.8% simple interest for 2 years o 4.1 % / year compounded semi- annually for 2 years Compare both the plans and find out which is the best to choose

Answers

Answer:

Amount she would have in 2 years at a simple interest of is

$5000 + ($5000 x 0.048 x 2) = $5480

Amount she would have in 2 years at a 4.1 % / year compounded semi- annually is :

$5000 x ( 1 +0.041/2)^4 = $5422.78

the first option yields a higher value in two years when compared with the second option. Thus, the first option is the best one to choose

Step-by-step explanation:

Future value with simple interest = principal + interest

Interest = principal x interest rate x time

0.048 x 5000 x 2 = 480

future value = $480 + 5000 = $5480

The formula for calculating future value with compounding:

FV = P (1 + r)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

m = number of compounding

N = number of years

5000 x ( 1 + 0.041 / 2)^(2 x 2) = $5422.78
