Answer:

11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Tap A

1 tank / 3hr = 1/3 tank/1hr

Tap B

1 tank / 8 hr = 1/8 tank /1hr

Tap A + Tap B X 2hr

(1/3/hr +1/8/hr) * 2hr = 2/3 + 2/8 (the hr cancels out) = 8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12

What is the answer to this question
il63 [147K]
The ratio of the shortest sides is 12/5. Multiplying the other two sides of the smaller triangle by that ratio gives 15 and 18, so the ratios of all sides are the same. The triangles are similar.

ABC ~ ZYX

The largest/smallest scale factor is 12/5 = 2.4.

Could use some help pls.

Answer:

9 cans of soup and the 4 frozen dinners were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cans of soup purchased.

Let y represent the number of frozen dinners purchased.

Lincoln purchased a total of 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners. This means that

x + y = 13

Each can of soup has 250 mg of sodium and each frozen dinner has 550 mg of sodium. The 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners which he purchased collectively contain 4450 mg of sodium. This means that

250x + 550y = 4450 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes

250(13 - y) + 550y = 4450

3250 - 250y + 550y = 4450

- 250y + 550y = 4450 - 3250

300y = 1200

y = 1200/300

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 13 - y, it becomes

x = 13 - 4 = 9

Tj worked for 5 hours and 45 minutes how should he write that on his time card
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Tj should write 5.75 hours on her time card.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given, Tj worked for 5 hours and 45 minutes.

We will convert 45 minutes to hours by dividing 45 by 60 as one hour has 60 minutes.

\frac{45 minutes }{60} \times\frac{hour}{minutes}

=0.75 hours

Hence, Tj should write 5.75 hours on her time card.
