Step-by-step Answer:

Given:

Bill : 3 minutes / apple

Frank : 5 minutes / 2 apples, or 2.5 minutes / apple.

So in 15 minutes, Bill eats 5 apples, and Frank eats 15/2.5 = 6 apples for a total of 11 apples.

To eat completely at least 12 apples, it would take 15 minutes + 1 apples, which means 17.5 minutes, with Bill having eaten 5 5/6 apples, and Frank having eaten 7 apples, exactly.

So the minimum time to eat 12 apples would be 17.5 minutes.

Note: at 18 minutes, they would have eaten 13 1/5 apples.

Solve and type in a different form by using the given theorems of logarithms
scoray [572]

\log\left(\frac{10}{y}\right) = \log(10) - \log(y)

The general rule is

\log\left(\frac{A}{B}\right) = \log(A) - \log(B)

Other log rules are

\log(AB) = \log(A) + \log(B)

B\log(A) = \log(A^B)

A wooden plank is leaning against a wall. The bottom of the plank is 3 feet from the wall. Answer each of the following question
Nadusha1986 [10]

AB = ==> distance between the bottom of the plank; and the wall ===> 3 ft.

C ====> 49 degrees

For letter a, to solve for AC:

AC ==> HYPOTENUSE. The angle C is the OPPOSITE side of AB.

use sine :

sin A ===> opposite/hypotenuse

Solve:

sin 49 ====> 3/AC

AC ====> 3 / sin 49

AC ====> 3.96 ft.

For letter b, to solve for BC:

We are now given with the base (3 ft.); and; the hypotenuse (3.96 ft.) so we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Let:

a ===> AB

b ===> BC

c ===> AC

(AB)^2 + (BC)^2 ===> (AC)^2

3^2 + (BC)^2 ===> (3.96)^2

(BC)^2 ===> (3.96)^2 - 3^2

(BC)^2 ===> 6.6816

sqrt (BC)^2 ===> sqrt 6.6816

Answer: BC ===> 2.58 ft.

Hope that helps!!!! : )
