Answer:

Janet should receive $1.20

Kay should receive $0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Janet=2 gallons

Kay=1 3/4 gallons=1.75

Total=2+ 1 3/4

=2+7/4

=8+7/4

=15/4 gallons

They agreed to share it equally

15/4÷3

=15/4×1/3

=15/12=1.25

=5/4 each individual gets 5/4

Janet=2-1.25=0.75

Janet gave up 0.75 gallonsof her water

The percentage is

0.75/1.25×100

=0.6×100

=60%

Kay=1.75-1.25=0.50

Kay gave up 0.50 gallons of her water

The percentage is

0.50/1.25×100

=0.4×100

=40%

Janet gets 60% of $2

60/100×$2

=0.6×$2

=$1.2

Kay gets 40% of $2

=40/100×$2

=0.4×$2

=$0.8

A converging lens of focal length 5 cm is placed at a distance of 20
lesya [120]

The object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen

<h3>Mirror equation</h3>

The mirror equation is given according to the expression below;

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

Given the following parameters

f = 5cm

v = 20cm

Required

object distance u

Substitute

1/5 = 1/u +1/20

1/u = 1/5-1/20
1/u = 3/20

u = 20/3 cm

Hence the object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen

Use euler's formula to find the missing number <br><br>vertices: 11<br>edges: 34<br>Faces: ?
larisa [96]

Answer:

F = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Euler's formula for polyhedra states that

F + V - E = 2

Here V = 11, E = 34, thus

F + 11 - 34 = 2

F - 23 = 2  ( add 23 to both sides )

F = 25
