In 1 minute, I walk = 1/30

In 1 minute, My brother walk = 1/40

In T minutes, I walk = T*1/30

My brother walk 8 minute before = T + 8

In 1 minute, My brother walk = (T + 8)*1/40

When these two distances are same, then I will catch him.

T*(1/30) = (T + 8)*(1/40)

30*(T + 8) = 40*T

30*T + 240 = 40*T

240 = 10*T

T = 24 minutes

hence, I will catch him in 24 minutes.

Take 5 instead of 8.

My brother walk 5 minute before = T + 5

In 1 minute, My brother walk = (T + 5)*1/40

When these two distances are same, then I will catch him.

T*(1/30) = (T + 5)*(1/40)

30*(T + 5) = 40*T

30*T + 150 = 40*T

150 = 10*T

T = 15 minutes

Hence, I will catch him in 15 minutes.

Find the height of a soup can if the area of the label is 302 square centimeters and the radius of the can is 4 centimeters. Rou
amid [387]
To answer this, we assume that the can is in cylindrical shape. The of its label would correspond to an area of a rectangle where the length would be the circumference of the base of the can. We calculate as follows:

C = 2πr = 2π(4) = 8π = L

A = LH = 8π(H) = 302
H = 12 cm

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Write a two column proof. If ZY=3XY, then ZX=4XY
Blababa [14]

Answer:

As you have written

Z Y  = 3 X Y,

It means X, Y, Z are collinear points i.e they lie in the same line or line segment.

Locating points X, Y,Z  on the line

Two possibilities are possible

1. First Z, then X and then Y on the line or line segment

→ Z X + Y X= Z Y

But Z Y = 3 X Y [ Given]

→  Z X + Y X = 3 X Y

→  Z X = 3 X Y -  Y X

→  Z X = 2 X Y ⇒ which is not the result.

2. 2nd Possibility

First Z, then Y and then X on the line or line segment

→ Z X  =  Z Y + Y X

→ Z X= 3 X Y + Y X  [Z Y=3 X Y→(given)]

→ Z X= 4 X Y , Which is the result.
