Answer: Time = 1.5hours or 1 hour 30minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Carrie can inspect a case of watch in 5 hours

if n represent the task,

Carrie's rate C = n/5

James' rate J = n/3

Their combined rate is=n/5 + n/3 = 8n/15

Carrie After working one hour, he would have completed n/5 of the task.

Therefore, the remaining fraction of task is 4n/5

To complete the remaining fraction of task by the two of them, the time taken can be given as;

Work done = rate × time

Time = workdone/rate

Workdone = amount of task remaining = 4n/5

rate combined= 8n/15

Time = (4n/5)/(8n/15)

Time = 1.5hours or 1 hour 30minutes

Answer:

12/13

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of an angle in a triangle can be calculated as a relation between the adjacent side and the hypothenuse. So, in this case the adjacent side of θ is 24 and the hypothenuse is  26.

Then:

cos(θ) = 24/26 = 12/13

Offer B is the best value for money because each kg cost is £0.61 and in offer 'A' each kg cost is £0.7.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

We have:
2 bags for £35

2 bags means 50 kg (2×25)

Each kg cost = 35/50 = £0.7 per kg

3 bags for £92.50

3 bags means 150 kg

Each kg cost = 92.50/150 = £0.61 per kg

As we can see, offer B has a low cost per kg

Thus, offer B is the best value for money because each kg cost is £0.61 and in offer 'A' each kg cost is £0.7.
