Answer:

How much did they eat all together? 5/6

How much was left over? 1/6

\\

Step-by-step explanation:

How much did they eat all together?

\frac{2}{4}  +  \frac{1}{3}  \\  =  \frac{6}{12}  +  \frac{4}{12}  \\  =  \frac{10}{12}  \\  =  \frac{5}{6}

\\

How much was left over?

1 - \frac{5}{6}  \\  =  \frac{6}{6}  -  \frac{5}{6}  \\  =  \frac{1}{6}

Answer:

<em>Pizza eaten together: 5/6,</em>

<em>Pizza left over: 1/6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

~ If Ellen ate 2/4th of the pizza and John ate 1/3 of the pizza, provided that the pizza counts as a whole ( 1 )... ~

1. Let us simplify 2/4th to be ⇒ 1/2, through simple algebra

2. To see how much they ate together we would neglect that the pizza counts as a whole but simply add 1/2 by 1/3rd.

3. Through simple algebra: 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = <em>Pizza eaten together: 5/6</em>

4. Now to find out how much pizza was left over, we would need the fact that a pizza ⇒ 1 whole. It would be that 1 - 1/2 - 1/3 ⇒ Pizza left over, through the <em>Partition Postulate. </em>In fact, the pizza left over would simply be 1 whole - the pizza eaten together ( 5/6 ).

5. Through algebra: 1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = 1 - 5/6 = <em>Pizza left over: 1/6</em>

PQ // BC 

then

Angle P = Angle B, A is common angle the two triangles are similar

AP/AB  = AQ/AC

8/18 = 12/ AC

AC = 12 * 18/8 = 27 (your ans: D)

AQ + QC = AC

QC = AC - AQ = 27 - 12 = 15 (if it was required) 

tan60 = y/8

y = s tan60 = 8sqrt(3)  (B)

Kitara has 100 quarters and dimes. Their total value is $19. How many of each coin does Kitara have?
Sedbober [7]
Q + d = 100 so q = 100 - d
0.25q + 0.10d = 19

substitute q = 100 - d into 0.25q + 0.10d = 19

0.25q + 0.10d = 19
0.25(100 - d) + 0.10d = 19
25 - 0.25d + 0.10d = 19
-0.15d = -6
        d = 40

q = 100 - 40 = 60

answer
Kitara has 60 quarters and 40 dimes
