First:

Make the denominator equal:

2/5 = 16/40 6/8 = 30/40

Second:

Add both numbers

46/40

Third:

Simplify

1 and 6/40 or 1 and 3/20

Answer:

Together they ate 1 while pie and 3/20 of another.

hope this helps!

a silkworm winds its cocoon out of one long silk fiber. to make silk thread, 3 to 10 of these silk fibers are unwound from their

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.

Let the number of silk fibres = a.

It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.

So, we get the equation,

$ax=300$ , where $3\leq a\leq 10$

i.e. $x=\frac{300}{a}$ , $3\leq a\leq 10$

So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.

Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Does anyone know the answer?

Answer:

We conclude that the area of the right triangle is:

$A\:=p^2-2p-3$

Hence, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given right-angled triangle,

Base = p+1

Perpendicular = 2p-6

Using the formula to determine the area of the right-angled triangle

Area of the right triangle A = 1/2 × Base × Perpendicular

$=\frac{1}{2}\left(p+1\right)\left(2p-6\right)$

Factor 2p-6: 2(p-3)

$=\frac{\left(p+1\right)\times \:2\left(p-3\right)}{2}$

Divide the number: 2/2 = 1

$=\left(p+1\right)\left(p-3\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:FOIL\:method}:\quad \left(a+b\right)\left(c+d\right)=ac+ad+bc+bd$

$=pp+p\left(-3\right)+1\cdot \:p+1\cdot \left(-3\right)$

$=pp-3p+1\cdot \:p-1\cdot \:3$

$=p^2-2p-3$

Therefore, we conclude that the area of the right triangle is:

$A\:=p^2-2p-3$

Hence, option A is correct.
