Multiply 40x7 then subtract that total you got from multiplying 40x7 with 420
40x7=160
420-160=260
260 pieces of wood were left.
If it takes one person 4 hours to paint a room and another person 12 hours to
paint the same room, working together they could paint the room even quicker, it
turns out they would paint the room in 3 hours together. This can be reasoned by
the following logic, if the first person paints the room in 4 hours, she paints 14 of
the room each hour. If the second person takes 12 hours to paint the room, he
paints 1 of the room each hour. So together, each hour they paint 1 + 1 of the 12 4 12
room. Using a common denominator of 12 gives: 3 + 1 = 4 = 1. This means 12 12 12 3
each hour, working together they complete 13 of the room. If 13 is completed each hour, it follows that it will take 3 hours to complete the entire room.
This pattern is used to solve teamwork problems. If the first person does a job in A, a second person does a job in B, and together they can do a job in T (total). We can use the team work equation.
Teamwork Equation: A1 + B1 = T1
Often these problems will involve fractions. Rather than thinking of the first frac-
tion as A1 , it may be better to think of it as the reciprocal of A’s time.
World View Note: When the Egyptians, who were the first to work with frac- tions, wrote fractions, they were all unit fractions (numerator of one). They only used these type of fractions for about 2000 years! Some believe that this cumber- some style of using fractions was used for so long out of tradition, others believe the Egyptians had a way of thinking about and working with fractions that has been completely lost in history.
Volume of a sphere is given by the formula:
If we pull the 4 out front we have,
.
Volume of a cone is given by the formula:
Notice that if the height of the cone is equal to the radius,
then it's exactly what we see in our volume formula without the 4!
Answer:
3400 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between building 1 and building 2 = |5+3| = 8
Distance between building 2 and building 3 = |4+5| = 9
Distance between building 3 and building 4 = |-3-5| = 8
Distance between building 4 and building 1 = |4+5| = 9
total distance = 8 x 2 + 9 x 2 = 34
total distance in feet = 34 x 100 = 3400 feet
Answer:
16x-30
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute 2/5 by 40x and then 75
2/5(40x) - 2/5(75)
16x - 30
