Answer:

Length of AB  = 6 cm

Length of the segment BC =  14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, B is a point on a segment AC.

AB : BC = 3:7

Length of the segment AC = 20 cm

Now, let the common ratio between the segment is x.

So, the length of AB = 3 x , and Length of BC = 7 x

Now, AB + BC = AC

⇒  3x + 7x = 20

or, 10 x = 20

or, x = 2

Hence, the length of AB = 3 x = 3 x 2 = 6 cm

and the length of the segment BC = 7x =  7 x 2 =  14 cm

Tina spent 3/5 of her paycheck on a trip to the beach. She spent 3/8 of her paycheck on new clothes for the trip. What fraction
yuradex [85]

Answer:

<u>Tina spent almost all her paycheck on the trip and buying new clothes for the trip. She spent 39/40 of her paycheck.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information  given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount spent by Tina on a trip to the beach = 3/5

Amount spent by Tina on new clothes = 3/8

2. What fraction of her paycheck did Tina spend on the trip and clothes together?

Total spent by Tina on the trip and new clothes = 3/5 + 3/8

Total spent by Tina on the trip and new clothes = 24/40 + 15/40 = 39/40

<u>Tina spent almost all her paycheck on the trip and buying new clothes for the trip. She spent 39/40 of her paycheck.</u>
