Answer:

7hr 12 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Bob  can type 2 letters in 4 hours

while on the other hand bill can do it in six hours

We need to find out the no of hours in which they type 6 hours

So,

Bob's rate is

= 2 ÷ 4

= 1 ÷ 2 letter per hour

And,  

Bill's rate is

= 2 ÷ 6

= 1 ÷ 3 letter per hour

Now

Together rate is

= 1 ÷ 2 + 1 ÷ 3 = 5 ÷ 6 letter per hour

We know that

rate × hours = production

Let us assume the hours be x

So,  

(5 ÷ 6)x = 6

x = (6 ÷ 5) × 6

x = 36 ÷ 5

= 7 1 ÷ 5

= 7hr 12 min

Mike hiked to a lake in 6.5 hours at an average rate of 3 2/5 miles per hour. Pedro hiked the same distance at a rate of 3 4/5 m
balandron [24]
We first need to find the distance.
The information about Mike will provide the distance we need to answer the question about Pedro.

We will use D = rt

Mike:

(6.5)((17/5) = D

22.1 miles = D

Pedro:

D = rt

22.1 = (19/5)t

We need to find t.

22.1 ÷ 3.8 = t

5.8157894737 = t

We now round off as instructed.

5.82 = t

It took Pedro 5.82 hours to reach the lake.

An artist wishes to make a sign in the shape of an isosceles triangle as shown. find the area
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Drop an angle bisector from angle C until it intersects AB. Because of the symmetry of the triangles created, you will form two small right angle congruent triangles. Call the point of intersection with AB = D. In other words the bisector of <C is CD.

CB = AC                          Isosceles triangle

CD / CB = Sin(38.5)        

  CD=?

  CB = 35

CD / 35 = Sin(38.5)      Multiply both sides by 35

CD = 35 * sin(38.5)

CD = 21.79

BD/CB  =  Cos(38.5)

BD = CB* Cos(38.5)

BD = 35 * Cos (38.5)

BD = 27.39

Area = CD * BA/2

BA/2 = DB

Area = CD * BD

Area = 21.79 * 27.39

Area = 596.9

5. If we represent the length of a line by a,
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Let a be the length of line

from question we know that

a+3 is another line

Here

a+(a+3)=15. ( Given in question )

2a = 15 -3

2a=12

a=12/2

a=6

Here a and a +3 are the length of the line

Finally ,6 and 9 are the lengths
