Answer:

  (9/10)/(2/5) = ratio of work times

  2 1/4 times as long

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  2/5 hours work in the morning

  9/10 hours work in the afternoon

<u>Find</u>:

  an equation for how many times as long was afternoon work compared to morning work

  the equation solution

<u>Solution</u>:

  a/m = r . . . . ratio of afternoon work to morning work

  (9/10)/(2/5) = r . . . equation

  (9/10)/(4/10) = r

  9/4 = r = 2 1/4 . . . solution

The builder worked 2 1/4 times as long in the afternoon as in the morning.

andre [41]

Answer:

A)  T=\frac{-20}{4}

B) T = -5 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let T be the change in temperature of the week. T is determined as the total temperature change (-20°C) divided by the number of weeks that have passed (4 weeks). The expression is:

T=\frac{-20}{4}

B) In order to simplify the expression, simply perform the division.

T=\frac{-20}{4}\\T=-5^oC

This means that the temperature has dropped by 5 degrees each week.

A bag contains n blue and m red marbles. You randomly pick a marble from the bag, write down its color, and then put the marble
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

(mn+n²)/(m+n)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of blue marble= n/(n+m)

probability of red marble= m/(n+m)

probability that process stops = Probability of both blue + probability of both red=  n/(n+m) × n/(n+m) + m/(n+m)×m/(n+m)

                        = (n²+m²)/(n+m)²

P(1st marbel is blue)= P(blue and red) + P(blue and blue)

                                  = mn/(n+m) + n²/(n+m)

                                   = (mn+n²)/(m+n)

P(1st marble is blue | process stops)= ( (mn+n²)/(m+n)× (n²+m²)/(n+m)²)/ ((n²+m²)/(n+m)²)

= (mn+n²)/(m+n)

Geometry questions....help me someone please
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Triangle 1: x = 80 degrees, acute

Triangle 2: x = 10 degrees, right

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle 1:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation:

60 + 40 +x = 180

Solve for x:

100 + x = 180\\x = 80

So, x = 80 degrees

Because all the angles are less than 90 degrees, this is an acute triangle.

Triangle 2:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation (with the right angle given):

3x + 60 + 90 = 180

Solve for x:

3x + 150 = 180\\3x = 30\\x = 10

So, x = 10 degrees

Because there is an angle measuring 90 degrees, this is a right triangle.
