Answer:

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week  is 249

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume :

The number of carpets cleaned by old company in 1 week = m

So, the number of carpets cleaned by new company in 1 week

= 3 x ( Number of carpets cleaned by old company)

 = 3 (m) = 3 m

Total carpet cleaned altogether in a week  = 332

So, Total Carpets cleaned by both companies in 1 week

= Number of carpets cleaned by ( Old + New) company in 1 week.

=  m + 3  m =  4 m

⇒  4  m = 332

or, m = 332 / 4 = 83  , or m = 83

Hence number of carpets cleaned by old company per week = m = 83

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week

= 3 m =  3 x 83= 249

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

0.125 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Eloise's aunt cut 9.5 meters of ribbon into 4 equal sections and gave one of those sections to Eloise.

The length of the ribbon given to Eloise

= 9.5 meters/4

= 2.375 meters

Her friend Amelie has 2.5 meters of ribbon.

How much more ribbon does Amelie have than Eloise?

This is calculated as:

Number of meters of ribbon Amelie has - Number of meters if ribbon Eloise has

= 2.5 meter - 2.375 meters

= 0.125 meters

Therefore: Amelie has 0.125 meters of ribbon more than Eloise

What is the radian measure of a 150° angle?
jolli1 [7]
Well, since we know that in π radians there are 180°, then how many radians in 150°?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
radians&de grees\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\pi &180\\
x&150
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\pi }{x}=\cfrac{180}{150}\implies \cfrac{\pi \cdot 150}{180}\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{5\pi }{6}}
