Let
z--------> the number

we know that
<span>One third of a number, z, added to one fifth of the same number is 3/5 
</span><span>so
the equation that represents this sentence is 
</span>(1/3)z+(1/5)z=3/5
(5+3)z/15=3/5----------> 8z=9-------> z=9/8

therefore

the answer is the option
<span>D) 9/8 , because the equation that represents this sentence is 1/3z+1/5z=3/5 .</span>

How to solve surface area triangular prisms
Natasha2012 [34]
To solve the surface area of a triangular prism, first solve the base area, and one of the outer sides. Multiple the outer side by 3, add up the base, then you get the surface area.
You can find out triangle area by multiplying the base length by height.

4x-3=2x+7<br><br><br> HELP PLEASEEE
Mkey [24]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x - 3 = 2x + 7 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 3 = 7 ( add 3 to both sides )

2x = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 5

PLS PLS. send me the answer for the first question with an explanation. due tmrw so quick.​

Answer:

85 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the volume of a single nail. It consists of a circular cylinder and hemispherical part.

The volume of the cylinder πr^2 • h. We are given the diameter of the cylinder (14 mm), so radius is half of that (r = 7 mm) and we are given the height (h = 20 mm).

So, the volume of the cylinder is:

V1 = π • 7^2 • 20

V1 = 3077.2 mm^3

Now for the volume of the hemisphere part. Its volume is half of the sphere:

V2 = (4/3 • πr^3) / 2

Diameter of the sphere is given and it is 21 mm, so the radius is 10.5 mm. So, the volume is:

V2 = (4/3 • π • 10.5^3) / 2

V2 = 2423.3 mm^3

So, the volume of the nail is V1 + V2 which is 5500.5 mm^3

Now let's convert volume of the metal used for making nails. It's given that it is 550.55 cm^3 which is 550550 mm^3.

It is also said that 15% of the volume is wasted, so we are left with 85% of the volume, which is 550550 • 0.85 and that equals to 467967.5 mm^3. So to find a number of nails made from this volume, we divide:

467967.5 / 5500.5 = 85 nails
