What is this 1/6 + 2/18

1 answer:

8 0

First you find common denominator which is 18, you don't have to change 2/18

1x3=3
6x3=18

so 3/18 plus 2/18= 5/18

So your answer is 5/18

To gain a pass a student needs to achieve a mean of at least 60% in eight tests. In the first seven

Tanzania [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

the mean value is the sum of all data points divided by the number of data points.

first we have 7 tests and their mean value :

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) / 7 = 54

that means

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) = 54 × 7 = 378

in order for the mean value to be at least 60% after 8 tests, we need to add a t8, so that

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7 + t8) = 60 × 8 = 480

because only then we have

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7 + t8) / 8 = 60

and the student passes.

so,

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) + t8 = 480

378 + t8 = 480

t8 = 480 - 378 = 102%

the student would have to achieve 102% on the 8th test.

which would be normally impossible, but maybe the tests involve some bonus points.

It takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls. How many minuets does it take 6 people to paint 7 walls?

earnstyle [38]

It takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls

Solution:

It takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls

To find: Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls

If $M_1$ men can do $W_1$ work in $D_1$ days working $H_1$ hours per day and $M_2$ men can do $W_2$ work in $D_2$ days working $H_2$ hours per day, then

$\frac{M_1D_1H_1}{W_1} = \frac{M_2D_2H_2}{W_2}$

M = Number of men

D = Number of days

H = Number of hours per day

W = Amount of work

Here in this sum,

54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls

$H_1 = 54 minutes ; M_1 = 4 people ; W_1 = 6 walls$

Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls

$H_2 = ? ; M_2 = 6 people ; W_2 = 7 walls$

Substituting the values in formula, we get

$\frac{54 \times 4}{6} = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\9 \times 4 = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\H_2 = \frac{36 \times 7}{6}\\\\H_2 = 42$

Thus it takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls

The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. It takes 8 hours for 4 people to pain

dezoksy [38]

Answer: it will take 5 people 6.4 hours to do the work.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. Let h represent the number of hours required to do the job. Let p represent the number of people working. Therefore,

h is inversely proportional to p

Introducing a constant of variation, k, it means that

h = k/p

It takes 8 hours for 4 people to paint the inside of a house. Therefore

8 = k/4

k = 8×4 = 32

The formula becomes

h = 32/p

To determine how many hours it will take 5 people to do the work, we will substitute p = 5 into the formula. It becomes

h = 32/5 = 6.4 hours
