Answer:

The fraction of Tiffany wages taken out for these purpose is \dfrac{13}{60} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Let The wages earn by Tiffany = $x

Let The fraction of Tiffany wages taken out for purpose = $y

Tiffany uses \dfrac{1}{10} of her wages each month to buy company stock.

She puts \dfrac{1}{20} of her wages in a savings account .

She puts \dfrac{1}{15} of her wages into company pension plan

Now,

Total fraction of wages used by Tiffany = fraction used to buy company stock + fraction used in saving account + fraction used in pension plan

Or, y = \dfrac{1}{10} +  \dfrac{1}{20} +  \dfrac{1}{15}

Now taking LCM

Or, y = \dfrac{12 + 6 + 8}{120}

Or y = \dfrac{26}{120}

Or, y =  \dfrac{13}{60}

So, The fraction of Tiffany wages taken out for purpose = y = \dfrac{13}{60}

Hence, The fraction of Tiffany wages taken out for these purpose is \dfrac{13}{60} . Answer

Do u think temperature and pressure have any effect on gasses ​
larisa [96]

Answer:

Gay Lussac's Law - states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature. If you heat a gas you give the molecules more energy so they move faster. This means more impacts on the walls of the container and an increase in the pressure.

Step-by-step explanation: An increase in the number of gas molecules in the same volume container increases pressure. A decrease in container volume increases gas pressure. An increase in temperature of a gas in a rigid container increases the pressure

katrin [286]

Answer:

The area of the shape is 89m²

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to subtract the area of the empty triangle from the area of the rectangle.

The rectangle's area is 13m × 8m = 104m²

The triangle's area is (6m × (13 - 8)m) / 2 = (6 × 5) / 2 m² = 15m²

Subtract the triangle's area from the rectangle:

104m² - 15m²

= 89m²
