What is the best estimate for the sum of fractions 5//6 and 5/8

Mathematics
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is 25/24 or 1.041

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 5/6 and 5/8, you can't find the sum at that point. This means we will have to find a common denominator, which will be 24.

6 x 4 = 24 and 8 x 3 = 24

Doing this, you will have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the value the denominator needs to be multiplied by to get 24.

5/6 x 4/4 = 20/24 and 5/8 x 3/3 = 15/24

After getting these values, you can then add them.

20/24 + 15/24 = 25/24 or 1.041

Susan received $27 for 6 hours of work. Susan's rate we hour will be:

= $27/6

= $4.5

Ricky received $14.25 for 3 hours of work. Ricky's rate will be:

= $14.25/3

= $4.75

From the option given, the correct option is C "Rickys rate was 0.25 more per hour" .

This is because $4.75 - $4.5 = $0.25

You buy 1 1/4 yards of fabric and $8 clothing pattern. Your total cost with a 6% sales tax added is $18.55. What is the cost per
Anna35 [415]

Answer: The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation: First we can divide it by 106 then multiply it by 100 to get rid of the 6% sales tax, which now the cost of the stuff is $17.50. 

Next, we subtract 8 from this to represent the clothing pattern cost. Now it is $9.50.

The last stap to this is to divide it by 1 1/4 to get the final cost per yard: 

The fabric costs $7.60 per yard.

Identify PR rounded to the nearest tenth. Please help asap!!
kicyunya [14]

Trigonometric Functions:

S\frac{O}{H} C\frac{A}{H} T\frac{O}{A}

Sine\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse} Cos\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse} Tan\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}

You have the angle and the adjacent. You need to find the hypotenuse (PR). Therefore, you use cos.

Cos(26)=\frac{13}{H}

Rearrange the formula to find H (PR):

H = \frac{13}{Cos(26)}

14.463 ~ 14.5

What is the surface area of a right come with a radius of 20 and a height of 15?
Allisa [31]

The first step in finding the surface area of a cone is to measure the radius of the circle part of the cone. The next step is to find the area of the circle, or base. The area of a circle is 3.14 times the radius squared (πr2). Now, you will need to find the area of the cone itself. In order to do this, you must measure the side (slant height) of the cone. Make sure you use the same form of measurement as the radius.

You can now use the measurement of the side to find the area of the cone. The formula for the area of a cone is 3.14 times the radius times the side (πrl).

So the surface area of the cone equals the area of the circle plus the area of the cone and the final formula is given by:

SA = πr2 + πrl
