Answer:

It would take them 6.667 minutes to paint 50 square feet together.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a classic work problem.  If Sam can do the job in 10 minutes, she can get done 1/10 of the job in one minute.  If you can do the job in 5 minutes, you can 1/5 of the job done in one minute.  To find out how many minutes it will take them together to paint 25 square feet, set the addition of their times equal to 1/x:

\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{x}

x is how long it takes them to get the job done together.  Find the common denominator and multiply it through be everything to get rid of the denominators altogether.  That denominator is 10x:

(10x)\frac{1}{10}+(10x)\frac{1}{5}=(10x)\frac{1}{x}

Simplify to get the simple equation x + 2x = 10 and 3x = 10.  That means that x=3 1/3.  That's how long it takes to do 25 square feet.  Double that time for 50 square feet.

A cake has circumference of 25 1/7inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 22/7 to approximate π. Round to the nearest hundredt
bixtya [17]
We know that
area of the circle=pi*r²

circumference==2*pi*r----------> r=circumference/(2*pi)
circumference=25 1/7 in----> (25*7+1)/7----> 176/7 in
r=(176/7)/(2*22/7)----> r=176/44----> r=4 in

area of the circle is equal to the area of the cake
area=pi*r²---> (22/7)*4²-----> area=50.29 in²

the answer is
50.29 in²

Work out the value of 10 fourths
lora16 [44]

Answer:

10/4 equals 2 1/2 when simplified.

Step-by-step explanation:

10/4 = 2 2/4 or 2 1/2 when simplified.

This is because, 4 x 2 = 8, and 8 + 2 (or 1/2 of 4) = 10.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer:

  y = 5x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (8 -3)/(2 -1) = 5

The y-intercept is given by the formula:

  b = y -mx

  b = 3 -5(1) = -2

Then the slope-intercept form equation is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = 5x -2 . . . . . . . . using the m and b we found above
