Fred takes 3 hours to dig a garden. It takes Jason 5 hours to

1 answer:

7 0

It takes them 1 7/8 hrs to complete the job together.

How:
Fred = 3 hrs
Jason = 5 hrs

1/3x + 1/5x = 1/x

3x x 5x = 15 —> 3x/15 + 5x/15 = 15/15

3x + 5x = 8x —> 8x/15 = 1.875 = 1 7/8 hrs

The figure is made up of a cylinder and a sphere which has been cut in half. The radius of each half sphere is 5 mm. What is

alexgriva [62]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Rounded to the nearest hundredth the volume of the composite figure is:</em>

<em>1308 33 cubic millimeters</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hello! I wrote the complete question in a comment above. The volume of a cylinder is defined as:

$V_{c}=\pi r^2 h \\ \\ r:radius \\ \\ h:height$

While the volume of half a sphere is:

$V_{hs}=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

Since we have 2 half spheres, then the volume of these is the same as the volume of a sphere:

$V_{s}=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Then, the composite figure is:

$V=\pi r^2 h +\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\ \\ V=\pi r^2(h+\frac{4}{3}r)$

The radius of the cylinder is the same of the radius of each half sphere. So:

$r=5mm \\ \\ h=10mm \\ \\ \\ V=(3.14) (5)^2((10)+\frac{4}{3}(5)) \\ \\ V=25(3.14)(10+\frac{20}{3}) \\ \\ \boxed{V\approx 1308.33mm^3}$

Anettt [7]

Answer:

30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

2 is a factor of 30, so the LCM of 2 and 30 is 30.

Saturn and Mars will appear in the same direction in the night sky every 30 years.
