Ben, Tim, and Sam have to do a certain job. Ben can finish the job in 5 hours. Tim can finish the job in 6 hours. Sam can finish

Brut [27]

x is 7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben, Tim, and Sam have to do a certain job

Ben can finish the job in 5 hours
Tim can finish the job in 6 hours
Sam can finish the job in x hours
The three of them can finish the job in 2 hours if they work together

We need to find x

∵ Ben can finish the job in 5 hours

∴ The rate of Ben = $\frac{1}{5}$

∵ Tim can finish the job in 6 hours

∴ The rate of Tim = $\frac{1}{6}$

∵ Sam can finish the job in x hours

∴ The rate of Sam = $\frac{1}{x}$

They will working together to finish the job in two hours, that means the sum of their rate is equal to 1/2

∵ They can finish the job in 2 hours if they work together

∴ $\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{2}$

To add the fractions find the LCM for all denominators to make all fractions with same denominators

∵ The LCM of 5, 6 ans x is (5 × 6 × x) = 30 x,

- Divide it by each denominator to find the new numerators

∵ 30 x ÷ 5 = 6 x , 30 x ÷ 6 = 5 x , 30 x ÷ x = 30

- Change all the denominators to 30 x and then write the new

numerators of each fraction

∴ $\frac{6x}{30x}+\frac{5x}{30x}+\frac{30}{30x}=\frac{1}{2}$

Add the numerators and put the sum over 30 x

∵ $\frac{11x+30}{30x}=\frac{1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(11 x + 30) = 1(30 x)

- Simplify the both sides

∴ 22 x + 60 = 30 x

- Subtract 22 x from both sides

∴ 60 = 8 x

- Divide both sides by 8

∴ 7.5 = x

∴ The value of x is 7.5 hours

x is 7.5 hours

Area and Circumference of Circles

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Pi( $\pi$ ) is the ratio of circumference to diameter for any circle.

Perimeter is the distance around a circle.

Circumference of circle $C = \pi d$ .

Perimeter of circle $= 2 \pi r$

What is circle ?

A circle is a spherical shape without boundaries or edges.

A circle is a closed, curved object with two dimensions in geometry.

Consider two small arcs AB and CD of two circles of radii x and y units, both of which make an angle of measure θ at the centers P and Q respectively.

For smaller values of θ, the arc length AB is almost equal to the length of the line segment $\bar{AB}$ . Similarly, arc CD ≅ $\bar{CD}$ .

Using the SAS rule of triangle similarity, we can say that APB and CQD are similar triangles because their angles are the same and their ratios are AP: PB = CQ: QD = 1: 1. So, it stands to reason that AB: AP = CD: CQ.

Circumference = $\pi \times$ diameter or circumference = 2 $\pi \times$ radius if this constant equals some value.

So it was proved.

Answer fast its sue by end of class

shtirl [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

question 1. Solve the equation 8-7/10 c = 6 - 1/5c for c

8 - 7/10c = 6 - 1/5c

subtract 8 from both sides:

8 - 7/10c - 8 = 6 - 1/5c - 8

- 7/10c = -2 - 1/5c

add 1/5c to both sides:

- 7/10c + 1/5c = -2 - 1/5c + 1/5c

- 7/10c + 1/5c = -2

change to common denominator:

- 7/10c+ 2/10c = -2

- 5/10c = -2

-1/2c = -2

multiply both sides by -2:

- 1/2c(-2) = -2(-2)

c = 4

question 2. 75 - 3.5y - 4y = 4y + 6 for y

75 - 3.5y - 4y = 4y + 6

75 - 7.5y = 4y + 6

add 7.5y to both sides:

75 - 7.5y + 7.5y = 4y + 6 + 7.5y

75 = 11.5y + 6

subtract 6 from both sides:

75 - 6 = 11.5y + 6 - 6

69 = 11.5y

divide both sides by 11.5:

69/11.5 = 11.5y/11.5

y = 6

___________________________________

Question 3. Solve the equation 16.5 + 2.75h = 9h + 7.5 − 4.25h for h.

16.5 + 2.75h = 9h + 7.5 − 4.25h

16.5 + 2.75h = 4.75h + 7.5

subtract 7.5 from both sides:

16.5 + 2.75h - 7.5 = 4.75h + 7.5 - 7.5

9 + 2.75h = 4.75h

subtract 2.75h from both sides:

9 + 2.75h - 2.75h = 4.75h - 2.75h

9 = 2h

divide both sides by 2:

9/2 = 2h/2

h = 9/2

Three consecutive even integers have a sum of 48 . find the integers.

Mandarinka [93]

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=48

3x+6=48

Minus 6 to both sides

3x=42

Divide 3 to both sides

x=14

Get the next two integers

x,x+2,x+4 or 14,16,18 = 48 is you Answer
