Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Maitri and Aabhas do a work in 12 hours
  • Aabhas and Kavya do the work in 15 hours
  • Kavya and Maitri do the work in 20 hours

<u>Solving</u>

  • Take Maitri, Aabhas, and Kavya to be x, y, z respectively
  • <u>x + y = 12</u> (1)
  • <u>y + z = 15</u> (2)
  • <u>x + z = 20</u> (3)

<u>Take Equation 1 and rewrite it so that it is equal to x.</u>

  • x = 12 - y

<u>Take Equation 2 and rewrite it so that it is equal to z.</u>

  • z = 15 - y

<u>Now, substitute these values in Equation 3.</u>

  • x + z = 20
  • 12 - y + 15 - y = 20
  • -2y + 27 = 20
  • 2y = 7
  • y = 7/2 = <u>3.5 hours [Aabhas]</u>

<u></u>

<u>Substitute the value of y in Equation 1.</u>

  • x + 3.5 = 12
  • x = <u>8.5 hours [Maitri]</u>

<u>Substitute the value of y in Equation 2.</u>

  • 3.5 + z = 15
  • z = <u>11.5 hours [Kavya]</u>

<u></u>

<u>Add the values of x, y, and z together.</u>

  • x + y + z
  • 8.5 + 3.5 + 11.5
  • 12 + 11.5
  • <u>23.5 hours [together]</u>

Answer:

The greatest number of 15 inches pieces that can be cut from 5 rolls of length 9 feet is: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total length of one roll of ribbon = 9 feet

As the pieces have to be cut into inches, we will convert the measurement in feet to inches

As there are 12 inches in one feet, 9 feet will be equal to:

9*12 = 108 inches

Now first of all, we have to see how many 15 inches pieces can be cut from one role

So,

=\frac{Length\ of\ roll}{Length\ of\ piece}\\=\frac{108}{15}\\=7.2

So the seamstress can cut 7 15-inch long pieces from a roll.

Now given that he has to cut from 5 rolls, the total number of 15-inch pieces will be:

= 5 * 7 =35

Hence,

The greatest number of 15 inches pieces that can be cut from 5 rolls of length 9 feet is: 35

The minute hand on a clock is 9 centimeters long and travels through an arc of 252 degrees every 42 minutes. To the nearest tent
kkurt [141]

Answer:

39.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying

s = 2πrθ/360................ Equation 1

Where s = length of an arc or distance traveled by the minutes hand of the clock during the 42 munites, r = length of the minutes hand of the clock, θ = Angle traveled by the minute hand of the clock for every 42 minutes

From the question,

Given: r = 9 cm, θ = 252°

Constant: π = 22/7 = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

s = (2×3.14×9×252)/360

s = 39.564

s = 39.6 cm

Its C. Add 3 and 15 which gives you 18. Then move the variable (4x) to the left. Then combine like terms which are the x’s and you should get 3x. Then divide both sides by 3. (18/3 = 6)
