All we need to do is to find a common denominator for both 1/2 and the other numbers individually:

1/2 = 3/6 (so 3/6 is not less than 1/2 - both numbers are equal)
1/2 = 15/30 and 7/15 = 14/30 (so 7/15 is less than 1/2)
1/2 = 9/18 and 4/9 = 8/18 (so 4/9 is less than 1/2)
1/2 = 4/8 (so 5/8 is not less - it's greater than 1/2)

Answer: From the list above only <u>7/15 and 4/9</u> are less than 1/2.

Answer:

2.4 cans cost 47.4

If you cannot buy 2.4 cans, you must buy 3 cans, then you'll pay 59.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The lawn has trapezoidal shape, so find the area of the trapezoid using formula

$A=\text{Midline}\times \text{Height}$

In the diagram, ABED is rectangle, so BE = 12 m, thus ED = 20 m - 12 m = 8 m.

Consider right triangle EDC. By the Pythagorean theorem,

$ED^2+EC^2=CD^2\\ \\ED^2+8^2=17^2\\ \\ED^2=289-64\\ \\ED^2=225\\ \\ED=15\ m$

Thue,

Height = 15 m

Find the midline:

$\text{Midline}=\dfrac{AD+BC}{2}=\dfrac{12+20}{2}=16\ m$

Hence,

$A=16\cdot 15=240\ m^2$

One can cover $100\ m^2,$ to cover $240\ m^2$ is needed

$240:100=2.4$ cans

One can costs 19.75, so 2.4 cans cost

$19.75\cdot 2.4=47.4$

If you cannot buy 2.4 cans, you must buy 3 cans, then you'll pay

$19.75\cdot 3=59.25$

PLEASE HELP!!! ASAP The function graphed approximates the height of a rock, in meters, x seconds after it falls from a cliff

nasty-shy [4]

The vertical numbers are the distance and the horizontal numbers are the time in seconds.

Look at where the line is located at the number 20.

It si between the 2 and the 3 on the horizontal line, but you can see it is closer to the 2 than it is the 3, so the time would be 2.2s
