You are remodeling your kitchen. You've contacted two tiling companies who gladly told you how long it took their workers to til

e a floor of a similar size. Jim completed half the floor in 6 hours. Pete completed the other half of the floor in 5 hours. If Pete can lay 10 more tiles per hour than Jim, at what rate can Jim lay tiles?

Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour

pete and jim laid same amount of tiles

j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate

6j=5p

but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j

sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50


jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour

Find the measure of x . Answer me please
Komok [63]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of measure of exterior angles is equal to 360

5x-20+2x+5+x+15+x = 360 add like terms

9x = 360 divide both sides by 9

x = 40

CONSTRUCTION You are asked to copy a segment CD, construct a segment bisector by paper folding, and label the
lilavasa [31]

The steps on the construction of a segment bisector by paper folding, and label the midpoint M is given below.

<h3>What are the steps of this construction?</h3>

1. First, one need to open a Compass so that it is said to be more than half the length of the said segment.

2. Without altering it, with the aid of the compass, do  draw an art above and also below the said line segment from one of the segment endpoints.

3. Also without altering it and with use the compass, do draw another pair of arts from the other and points. One arc will be seen above the segment and the other or the second arc will be seen below.

4. Then do draw the point of intersection that is said to exist between the pair of arts below the line segment and also in-between the pair of arts as seen  below the line segment

5. Lastly, do make use of a straight edge to link the intersection points between the both pair of arts.

Please find the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM with vertices J(6, 10), K(10, 6), L(8, 2), and M(2, 2). Thank y
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM  = \mathbf{ = 3 \sqrt{5} } i.e 6.708 units on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached below; we can see a graphical representation showing the mid-segment of the trapezoid JKLM. The mid-segment is located at the line parallel to the sides of the trapezoid. However; these mid-segments are X and Y found on the line JK and LM respectively from the graph.

Using the expression for midpoints between two points to determine the exact length of the mid-segment ; we have:

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} }

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(8-5)^2+(8-2)^2} }

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(3)^2+(6)^2} }

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{9+36} }

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{45} }

\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{9*5} }

\mathbf{ YX = 3 \sqrt{5} }

Thus; the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM  = \mathbf{ = 3 \sqrt{5} } i.e 6.708 units on the graph

A triangle has a height of 15 in. and a area of 120 in. What is the length of it's base?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

b=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula~ 1/2*b*h

1/2*15*b=120

7.5b=120

b=120/7.5

b=16

(you can substitute the value to check-i've done it below)

1/2*16*15=?

if you work it out, the ans will be 120, therefore the ans is correct!
