Answer:

Jamie. by 7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Halverson completed: 3/16

Jamie completed: 10/16.

To understand who completed more, look at the denominator. The common denominator is 16. Assume a puzzle has 16 pieces and Halverson did 3 out of 16 and Jamie did 10 out of 16. This means Jamie did more.

If you want to know by how much Jamie did more, it would be the difference of both the fraction. This means that 10 done by Jamie minus 3 done by Halverson, which is 7. So 7 out of 16 is the difference.

\frac{10}{16} -\frac{3}{16}

7 out of 16 can be written as 7/16

Michelle and Cody have summer jobs selling newspaper subscriptions door-to-door, but their compensation plans are different. Mic
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the certain number of of subscriptions in an hour that each of them would sell so that they will end up earning the same amount.

Michelle earns a base wage of $8 per hour, as well as $1 for every subscription that she sells. This means that the total cost of selling x subscriptions in an would be

x + 8

Cody gets $3 per subscription sold, in addition to a base wage of $4 per hour. This means that the total cost of selling x subscriptions in an hour would be

3x + 4

For both of them to earn the same amount,

x + 8 = 3x + 4

3x - x = 8 - 4

2x = 4

x = 4/2 = 2

They would earn the same amount when they sell 2 subscriptions.

The amount that each would earn is

2 + 8 = $10

Please HELP me. I've been trying to solve this question for an hour but I didn't find any answer.
Marta_Voda [28]
Volume of a cylinder is formulated as: π·r²h
Surface area of a cylinder is formulated as: 2π·rh + 2π·r²

So, for a:
Volume = π·5²·12 = π·25·12 = 300π
Surface area = 2π·5·12 + 2π·5² = 120π + 50π = 170π

And it's essentially the same process for the other questions.
