Answer:

24.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of a triangle is simply the slanted side of a triangle and it is always the longest side of any triangle.

Mathematically, the hypotenuse of a triangle is calculated using the Pythagorean theorem;

C² = A² + B²

Where;

C is the hypotenuse i.e the longest side.

A is the opposite side of the triangle.

B is the adjacent side of the triangle.

On Monday billy spent 4 1/4 hours studying.On Tuesday he spent another 3 5/9 hours studying what is the combined time he spent s

Amanda [17]

Answer:

$7\frac{29}{36}\ hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time spent on Monday (M) = $4\frac{1}{4}\ hours$

Time spent on Tuesday (T) = $3\frac{5}{9}\ hours$

Now, the total combined time spent on study is equal to the sum of the times spent on Monday and Tuesday.

So, we need to add both the times to get the combined time spent on studying.

The combined study time is given as:

Total time spent = Time spent on Monday + Time spent on Tuesday

$Total\ time=4\frac{1}{4}+3\frac{5}{9}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{4\times 4+1}{4}+\frac{3\times 9+5}{9}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{17}{4}+\frac{32}{9}\\\\\textrm{Taking LCD of 9 and 4 as 36, we get:}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{17\times 9}{4\times 9}+\frac{32\times 4}{9\times 4}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{153}{36}+\frac{128}{36}\\\\\textrm{Since the denominators are same, we add the numerators.}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{153+128}{36}\\\\Total\ time = \frac{281}{36}\ hours$
