First, let's get out common denominators.

8/12 and 3/12.

We then minus the 8 and 3 = 5/12.

We have 5/12.

That's your answer.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The pink fingernail are defined by the expression x-2 where x is the total number of fingers in both hand. For general case the number of nails with pink nail paint is 8.

Explanation:

Let the total number of fingers in both hands be x.

Since she paints 2 nails by red nail paint, therefore the number of remaining nails is x-2.

She paints pink nail paint on remaining nails, so the total number of pink nails is defined by the expression x-2.

In general case the total number of fingers in both hands is 10, therefore the number of nails with pink nail paint is $10-2=8$ .

Suppose you have one pyramid with a base that is 10 meters long and 10 meters wide with a slant that is 15 meters. Now, if the l

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The difference between area of pyramids is 125 sq.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of base = 10m

Breadth of base = 10 m

Slant height = 15 m

Area of pyramid = Area of 5 bases

Area of pyramid = $\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+10 \times 10$

Area of pyramid = 400 sq.m.

Now the length of base is increased to 15

Length of base = 15m

Breadth of base = 10 m

Slant height = 15 m

Area of pyramid = Area of 5 bases

Area of pyramid = $\frac{1}{2} \times 15 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 15 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 15+10 \times 10$

Area of new pyramid = 525 sq.m.

Difference between area of pyramids=525 sq.m. - 400 sq.,. = 125 sq.m.

Hence The difference between area of pyramids is 125 sq.m.
