Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

first tap= 3hours

therefore work done is = 1/3

second tap= 6hours

therefore work done = 1/6

so, 1/3+ 1/6

=2/6 + 1/6

=3/6

=1/2

=2/1 hours

=2 hours

A 12 oz bottle of shampoo last 16 weeks. How long would you expect an 18 oz bottle to last
jenyasd209 [6]
If a 12 oz bottle of shampoo lasted for 16 weeks, we have a ratio of 12:16 which can be shortened to 3:4.

Now if we have 18 oz bottle we know that it's 1/2 more than 12 oz bottle, so the ratio will be also 1/2 more. So if it was 12:16, the new ratio will be:

12 + (1/2 * 12) : 16 + (1/2 * 16)
12 + 6 : 16 + 8
18 : 24

It means that 18 oz bottle should last for 24 weeks. Of course the ratio has to stay the same in its lowest form in both situations and as 18:24 can be shortened to 3:4, it proves it's correct :)

The correct answer is Choice B: 53.0 feet.

If you draw a picture of the cross section, you will have a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 58 and one of the legs is 23.6. All you have to do is use the Pythagorean Theorem and solve for the missing side.

x^2 + 23.6^2 = 58^2

Find the area of the composite figure.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

132 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 * b * h. B stands for base and h stands for height. 1/2 multiplied by the base, 10, is 5. We then multiply 5 by 12 which is 60. Let's look at the rectangle now. The area of a rectangle is length by width. The length is 12ft and the width is 6ft. 12 * 6 = 72. 72+60=132 square feet.
