In one day, Mr. Stevens painted 1/5 of a house.
Each son paints 1/4.5 of a house in one day.

If Mr. Stevens and his two sons work together, the would paint (1/5+1/4.5+1.4.5)=(9/45+10/45+10/45)=29/45 of a house in one day.

It will take them 1/(29/45)=45/29 days to finish painting the house, assuming their work is additive, like no waiting for drying for the second coat, etc.

Calculate the length of AC to one decimal place in the trapezium below.
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

First we will split trapezium on two geometric figure.

One is rectangle and the second is right triangle.

When we subtract 11-4=7cm  we get one cathetus of the right triangle a=7cm also we know hypotenuse which is c=16cm.

We will use Pythagorean theorem to find the second cathetus b

b=√16∧2-7∧2= √256-49= √207 ≈ 14.39cm =DC =>

AC =√(DC)∧2+(AD)∧2= √14.39∧2+11∧2= √207+121= √328= 18.1cm

AC=18.1cm

Good luck!!

Solve Please. No Links. Links = Report.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to start is to do this problem is to start changing the 3/4 cup to a decimal

3/4 = 0.75

Now divide that into 11. What you are interested in is the remainder.

11/0.75 = 14.66667

He can make 14 whole pizzas.

He has 0.66667 of a cup left over which is less than 3/4 (or 0.75) so he does not have enough for another pizza.

So the answer is 0.66667 which is 2/3 of a cup is left over.
