Answer:

15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Their rate together is 1/6 floor per minute.

Her rate alone is 1/10 floor per minute.

His rate is the difference of these:

1/6 - 1/10 = 5/30 -3/30 = 2/30 = 1/15 . . . . floor per minute

It would take Jacob 15 minutes to do it alone.

You decide to put $150 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 down payment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate

zheka24 [161]

The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value 3000
P present value 150
R interest rate 0.025
T time?
3000=150 (1+0.025/12)^12t
Solve for t
3000/150=(1+0.025/12)^12t
Take the log
Log (3000/150)=log (1+0.025/12)×12t
12t=Log (3000/150)÷log (1+0.025/12)
T=(log(3,000÷150)÷log(1+0.025÷12))÷12
T=119.95 years

A triangular pyramid with a height of 9 inches has a volume of 63 cubic inches. If the height of the triangular base is 6 inches

Bond [772]

Option D: 21 in is the base length of the triangular base.

Explanation:

Given that a triangular pyramid with a height of 9 inches has a volume of 63 cubic inches.

The height of the triangular base is 6 inches.

We need to determine the base length of the triangular pyramid.

The base length of the triangular pyramid can be determined using the formula,

$Volume =\frac{1}{3} \times Bh$

Substituting $Volume=63$ and $Height=9$ in the above formula, we get,

$63 =\frac{1}{3} \times B(9)$

Simplifying the terms, we get,

$63 =3B$

Dividing both sides by 3, we have,

$21=B$

Thus, the base length of the triangular pyramid is 21 in

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps. So the question is asking you odds of 8 which is the denominator already. So then it asks the odd to pick eight. So thats how i got 1/8.

A bag contains purple marbles and blue marbles, 41 in total. The number of purple marbles is 4 less than 2 times the number of b

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

There are 26 purple marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We have purple (p) and blue (b) marbles in a bag, and 41 marbles total so:

p+b = 41

2) we want to know how many purple marbles we have, so let's rearrange for p:

p = 41 - b

3) Our problem gives us an expression for the purple marbles in terms of the blue, let's write it using math symbols instead of words:

<em>"The number of purple marbles is 4 less than 2 times the number of blue marbles."</em>

so: p = 2b - 4

3) Now we're going to plug this in (or substitute it) for our p in our first equation, and solve for b

p = 41 - b

2b - 4 = 41 - b (substitution)

2b = 45 - b ( add 4 to both sides)

3b = 45 (add b to both sides)

b = 15 (divide both sides by 3)

4, last step!)

Now we know we have 15 blue marbles, that's great! But we still want to know how many purple marbles we have.

41- 15 = 26 purple marbles
