If Chad can paint the whole room in 5 hours, in 1 hour he gets 1/5 of it painted. If Cassie can paint the whole room in 3 hours, in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it painted. If we add those together we can find out how much of the room they can paint together in one hour. 1/5 + 1/3 = 1/x, with x being the number of hours it will take them to paint the room together. Common denominator is 15, therefore, 3/15 + 5/15 = 1/x and 8/15 = 1/x. Cross-multiply to get 8x = 15, so it will take them 15/8 hours, or 1.9 hours to paint the whole room together.

What is cos(45°)?

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$\rm \dfrac{\sqrt2}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angled ∆ is given to us and we need to find out the value of cos 45° ( with rationalized denominator ) . As we know that in a right angle ∆ , the value of cosine is ,

$\rm\implies cos\theta =\dfrac{base}{hypotenuse}$

In the given triangle ,

Value of base = 1
Value of hypotenuse = √2

On substituting the respective values ,

$\rm\implies cos45^\circ =\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}$

For rationalizing the denominator , multiply numerator and denominator by √2 , we have,

$\rm\implies cos45^\circ=\dfrac{1(\sqrt2)}{(\sqrt2)(\sqrt2)}$

Simplify ,

$\rm\implies \boxed{\pink{\frak{ cos45^\circ=\dfrac{\sqrt2}{2} }}}$

The cost (in dollars) of a custom made sweatshirt is represented by 3.5n +29.99, where n is the number of different colors in th

juin [17]

Answer:

$52.5n+449.85$

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost is given for <em>1 sweatshirt</em>. To find the cost of 15 sweatshirts, we need to multiply the expression by 15. Let's do this:

$15(3.5n+29.99)\\=15(3.5n+29.99)\\=15(3.5n)+15(29.99)\\=52.5n+449.85$

This is the expression that represents the cost of 15 sweatshirts.
