I'm not sure your question has enough information to be answered properly, but I'll try to help:

Assuming each of them are sweeping 1/2 of the garge, we're gonna cut each of their times in half.

Now the girl needs 10 minutes for half the garage and her brother needs 15 minutes.

So, if they work together, the first ten minutes will overlap each other while the girls brother gets left behind to finish up for an extra five minutes.

So, when working together, the boy and the girl need 15 minutes to sweep the garage.

3. Look at the picture.

We have the right angle triangle. We know the sum of measures of angles in triangle is equal 180°. Therefore:

x^o+90^o+43^o=180^o\\\\x^o+133^o=180^o\ \ \ |-133^o\\\\x^o=47^o

Answer:\ \boxed{47^o}

4.
Look at the picture.

Use Pythagorean theorem:

x^2+14^2=(10+x)^2\\\\x^2+196=10^2+2\cdot10\cdot x+x^2\ \ \ \ |-x^2\\\\196=100+20x\ \ \ |-100\\\\20x=96\ \ \ |:20\\\\x=4.8

Used:\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2

Answer:\ \boxed{4.8\ units}

5.
TRUE: 1; 2; 4

6.
We find a slope of the line OP:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\O(2;\ 6)\to x_1=2;\ y_1=6\\\\P(4;\ 3)\to x_2=4;\ y_2=3\\\\m=\dfrac{3-6}{4-2}=\dfrac{-3}{2}

We have: OP:\ y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+b

Now, we must find the slope of the line perpendicular to the line OP.
We know:

k:y=m_1x+b;\ l:y=m_2x+c\\\\k\ \perp\ l\iff m_1m_2=-1

therefore

-\dfrac{3}{2}m_2=-1\ \ \ |\cdot\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)\\\\m_2=\dfrac{2}{3}

So. We have the answer! :)

Answer:\ \boxed{y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{3}}

Why is 4 and 44 not proportional
Oksanka [162]
Because 44 is a bigger number than 4 it is 11 times bigger so the difference is larger than a proportional number
