Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 + 1/2 is a simple addition fraction problem.

You'd find the LCM (lowest common denominator) which is 6. First, we'll take 1/3 which the denominator becomes 6. You see one side has been basically multiplied by 2, so you'd do it to both sides, giving us 2/6. Next, we do the same thing with 1/2. 2 -> 6 1 -> 3. 3/6. So finally, we have 3/6 + 2/6, which is 5/6.

Bashir works in a weather station and has launched a weather ballon. The height of the baloon is 4 kilometers and it is 1 kilome

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are given that the height of the balloon is 4 km and that it is 1 km away from the station.

Setting up the diagram that describes the given scenario, we would end up with a right-angled triangle as the one shown in the attached image

where:

height of the balloon = 4 km represents one side of the triangle

distance between the base of the balloon and the station = 1 km represents the other side

distance between the balloon and the station is the length we want to find and it represents the hypotenuse of the triangle.

To get the length of the hypotenuse, we will use the Pythagorean theorem

$hypotenuse = +\sqrt{(side1)^2 + (side2)^2}$

Substitute with the givens:

$hypotenuse = +\sqrt{(4)^2 + (1)^2}$ = √17 ≈ 4.1 km

Hope this helps :)

You and Mr. Fowles have decided to race each other at the Boston Marathon (26 miles long). Mr. Fowles runs at a steady 4.2 miles

Maslowich

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the time rate of change of velocity, it is the ratio of distance to time.

Mr. Fowles runs at a steady 4.2 miles per hour. The time taken to cover 26 miles is:

speed = distance / time

time = distance / speed = 26 / 4.2 = 6.19 hour

I run at 3 miles per hour. I was given 3 mile lead, so the remaining distance is 23 miles (26 - 3). The time needed to complete the 23 miles is:

time = distance / speed = 23 / 3 = 7.67 hour

a) Let d be the distance Mr Fowles catches me. Hence:

time = (d + 3)/4.2; also time = d/3

(d + 3)/4.2 = d/3

3d + 9 = 4.2d

1.2d = 9

d = 7.5 miles

He would catch me at 10.5 (7.5 + 3) miles from the starting point.

b) Mr. fowles finishes after 6.19 hour. At that time, the distance is have covered is:

distance = 6.19 * 3 mi/hr = 18.57 mile

Distance behind = 23 mile - 18.57 = 4.43 mile

c) time longer = 7.67 hour - 6.19 hour = 1.48 hour

The actual distance between the two houses is 44.1ft. The contractor measures the distance as 46ft. Find the relative error of t

mixer [17]

The correct answer is: 44.1ft - 46ft = -1.9ft/44.1ft = .043% relative error. Please mark Brainliest if helpful
