Answer:

The answer for this problem is 14.825

Step-by-step explanation:

There are about three steps for this problem

The first is finding out what is 45% of 3.5 yds. You do this by multiplying 3.5 and .45 and you get 1.575

The second step is finding the second carpets length. All you have to do is add the number we got from multiplication which is 1.575 to 3.5 and you get 5.075. The reason we added those numbers is because the problem says the second carpet is 45% "longer" than the first carpet.

The third and final step is to add up all three values and you get 14.825!

Two hikers come to a ravine and want to know how wide it is. They set up two similar triangles as shown in the diagram. How far
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

d = 80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with angle BCA, tan(BCA) = 30/15 so BCA = 63.43 degrees.

BCA = ECD since they are opposite angles.

tan ECD = d/40

40 tan(63.4degrees) = d

d = 80 ft

Alternatively, you can use similar triangles since the angles are the same, BCA = ECD, CED = CAB, and CBA = EDC. In that case use proportions to get 30/15 = d/40 so 2 = d/40 and d = 80.

Mia and holly can clean their room in 20 minutes, working together. Working alone, mia can clean the room in 30. How long would
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:  Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = Time taken by Holly to clean alone.

Given: Time taken by Mia to clean alone = 30 minutes

Time taken by Mia and holly to clean their room = 20 minutes

Then,

\dfrac1t+\dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3-2}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t= 60

Hence, Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.
