Answer:
3.125
Step-by-step explanation:
We just multiply the dimensions together and when we do so we get 3.125.
Answer:
The ratio of the perimeter of ABCD to JKLM is;
b. 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that ABCD ~ JKLM, where;
DC and ML are corresponding sides
AD and JM are corresponding sides
AB and JK are corresponding sides
Therefore;
DC/ML = AD/JM = AB/JK
Plugging in the values of the variables gives;
9/15 = z/10 = x/12
∴ z = 10×9/15 = 6
x = 12×9/15 = 7.2
9/15 = 6/y
y = 6 ×15/9 = 10
The perimeter of the quadrilateral ABCD = AB + BC + DC + AD
∴ The perimeter of the quadrilateral ABCD = 6 + 6 + 9 + 7.2 = 28.2
The perimeter of the quadrilateral JKLM = JK + JM + ML + LK
∴ The perimeter of the quadrilateral JKLM = 12 + 10 + 15 + 10 = 47
The ratio of the perimeter of ABCD to JKLM = 28.2/47 =0.6 = 3/5.
Answer: I think it's b.
Step-by-step explanation:
Best Answer: Bill's time to do the whole job, B
Jeff's time, B + 5
time they actually work, 6.
6/B + 6/(B+5) = 1
6(B+5) + 6B = B(B+5)
6B + 30 + 6B = B² + 5B
B² - 7B - 30 = 0
(B - 10)(B + 3) = 0
B = 10 or B = -3, and we reject the negative solution.
the equation is based on adding the fractions of the whole job each does. if Bill takes B hours to do the whole thing and works 6, he does 6/B of the job. similarly for Jeff.
in the 2nd problem,
a = time of experienced accountant
2a = time of new accountant
10 = time each actually works
10/a + 10/(2a) = 1 ........ multiply all by a
10 + 5 = a
a = 15 hr.
