If a gardner plants beans in 1/8 of a plot and tomatoes in 1/6 of a plot, what fraction of the garden is left for other crops

Mathematics

You simply have to sum the two fraction together to get the total amount of occupied plot. To do so, multiply both numerator and denominator of each fration by the same number, so that they end up having the same denominator.

You can multiply both numerator and denominator of 1/8 by 3 to get 3/24. Similarly, you can multiply both numerator and denominator of 1/6 by 4 to get 4/24.

Now we can easily sum the two fractions together:

\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{3}{24}+\dfrac{4}{24} = \dfrac{7}{24}

So, if 7 parts out of 24 are occupied, it means that there are 24-7=17 parts left for other crops. So, the answer is 17/24.

A boy wants to jump onto a carousel that is spinning at a rate of 14 revolutions per minute. If the carousel is 23 feet in diamt
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

16.86 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Speed of the carousel, s = 14 rpm

Distance from the carousel, d = 23 ft

To start with, we convert the given speed to revolution per second, so that

s = 14/60 rev/sec

To find the needed speed, we use the formula

v =2πnR, remember that Diameter = 2R, so we substitute D for 2R and get πnD

v = πnD, and we use this to find our needed velocity

v = 3.142 * 14/60 * 23

v = 72.266 * 14/60

v = 16.86 ft/s

Therefore the boy must run at a speed of 16.86 ft/s in order to be able to match the carousel and jump on it

What is the radius of a sphere with a surface area of 100TCm ?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The radius is 5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a sphere is given by:

SA = 4\pi r^2

Here

Given

SA = 100π cm^2

Putting the values in the formula

100\pi = 4\pi r^2\\r^2 = \frac{100\pi}{4\pi}\\r^2 = 25

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{r^2} = \sqrt{25}\\r = 5 cm

The radius is 5cm
