Answer:

Total distance:

  • d=11/15 miles or 0.73 miles          

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Alison walks 2/5 miles from her house to the mailbox.
  • Then she walks 1/3 mile to the bus stop.

Thus, the total distance can be calculated by adding the miles

i.e.

d=\:\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{3}

LCM of 5,3 is 15

   =\frac{6}{15}+\frac{5}{15}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{c}+\frac{b}{c}=\frac{a+b}{c}

  =\frac{6+5}{15}    

  =\frac{11}{15}

   =\:0.73  miles

Thus,

Total distance:

  • d=11/15 miles or 0.73 miles

monitta

Answer:

their sum: 2.8m

their difference: 1.2m

the third side's length should be smaller than their sum, larger than their difference

it could be: 1.3-1.4-1.5-1.6-1.7-1.8-1.9-2-2.1-2.2-2.3-2.4-2.5-2.6-2.7 but since it has to be a whole number, 2m is the only eligible answer.

The circumference of a standard bowling ball is about 27 in. To the nearest unit, how many square inches is the surface area of
Sidana [21]
The surface area of a sphere is S=4 \pi  r^{2} where r is the radius;
The circumference is 2 \pi r=27 in so that r= \frac{27}{2 \pi }=4.5 in using this value we can evaluate the surface area of 1 ball as:
S=4 \pi r^{2} =4 \pi  (4.5)^{2} =254.3  in^{2}
For 100 ball you get: 100*254.3=25430  in^{2}
