One jar filled with honey weighs 120 grams and one empty jar with half filled honey jar weighs 150 grams what is the weight of t

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

90 grams

Step-by-step explanation

Full = 120

half filled + empty = 150

half of 120 = 60

Therefore, a jar weighs 150 - 60

= 90 grams

The area of a right triangle is sixty square centimetres. Its base is one centimetre less than twice its height. If the base and

NemiM [27]

Answer:

5. None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

We have this information:

A = 60 cm2

b = 2*h - 1

Let's find out b and h:

The equation of the are of a triangle is A = (b*h)/2, if we replace it with our information, we have

$60 = ((2*h - 1) * h)/2\\ 120 = 2*h^2 - h\\ 0 = 2*h^2 - h - 120$

Let's find h with the quadratic formula:

$\fbox {Quadratic formula:} \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$h = \frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4*2*(-120)}}{2*2} = \frac{1\pm\sqrt{961}}{4} = \frac{1\pm\ 31}{4}$

h = 8 or h = -7.5

But h represents the height of the triangle, so it has to be a positive number, that's h = 8.

If we replace this in the equation we had for b, we have that b = 2*8 - 1 = 15.

Now we can calculate the hypotenuse with the Pythagorean equation

$\fbox {Pythagorean equation:}$ <em>The square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle). </em>

The base and the height are our legs. We will use "H" for the hypotenuse

$H^2 = b^2 + h^2 = 15^2 + 8^2 = 289\\ H = \sqrt {289} = 17$

H = 17

If we decrease the base and the height by 2 centimeters, we have

b' = 15 - 2 = 13 and h' = 8 - 2 = 6

With this, let's calculate the new hypotenuse:

$H'^2 = b'^2 + h'^2 = 13^2 + 6^2 = 205\\ H' = \sqrt {205} \approx 14.3$

$H' \approx 14.3$

So, the hypotenuse decreases $H - H' \approx 17 - 14.3 = 2.7$

One analog clock loses 3 minutes every 2 hours and another analog clock gains 3 minutes every 4 hours. At noon, the owner sets t

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

12 noon

Step-by-step explanation:

Clock 1 loses 3 minutes every 2 hours. Now, 2 hours = 120 minutes.

This means, it has speed of 120 - 3 = 117 minutes for every 2 hours.

Thus, in 1 hours, it's speed = 117/2 = 58.5 min/hr

Clock 2 gains 3 minutes every 4 hours

Which means in an hour, it gains ; 4/3 minutes

Thus, it's speed an hour is; 60 + 4/3 = 61.333 min/hr

Now, When he returns home in less than two weeks, the clocks show the same time.

let's say the number of hours he was away is x. For the 2 clocks to show the same time, it means they have to show it by 12 noon at another day since it was at noon that he set the correct times before leaving.

Thus, they will both be showing 12 noon.
