Answer:
Don
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We make the fractions have common denominators so it is easier to compare them. We can do this buy multiplying 2/3 by a factor of 16, so it becomes 32/48. For 11/16, we multiply by a factor of 3 so it becomes 33/48. It is now apparent that Don has the longer pipe.
<u>The present age of the man is 36 years and his son is 11 years.</u>
Answer:
Solution given:
let the age of man be x.
and his son be y.
By question
x-6=6(y-6)
x=6y-36+6
x=6y-30. ......(1)
and
3(x+4)=8(y+4)
3x+12=8y+32
3x=8y+32-12
3x=8y+20. ...(2)
substituting value of x in equation 2 ,we get
3(6y-30)=8y+20
18y-90=8y+20
18y-8y=90+20
10y=110
y=110/10
y=11 years
again substituting value of y in equation 1 we get
x=6*11-30
x=66-30
x=36 years
Steps
find the Least Common Multiple of the denominators (which is called the Least Common Denominator).
Change each fraction (using equivalent fractions) to make their denominators the same as the least common denominator.
Then add (or subtract) the fractions, as we wish!
your denominators stay the same so its 20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- t = time (in hours) → this is the independent variable
- s = total area cleaned (in square feet) → this is the dependent variable (as the number of square feet cleaned depends on the number of hours worked)
Therefore, if the rate of cleaning is 8 1/4 square feet per hour, the relationship between s and t is:
