Basically its 250 + 16x = 210 + 18x where x = the number of hours doing the job.

Solving, we get 40 = 2x, x =20

The jobs has to be 20 hours long in order for their two painting jobs to be equally priced.

Leah cut a 7 inch ribbon into pieces that are 1/2 an inch long. How many pieces of ribbon did she cut?

photoshop1234 [79]

14 ribbons.

7 divided by 1/2 is 14. dividing by a fraction or decimal is just like multiplying without the decimal point or numerator.

The figure shows △ABC . BD is the angle bisector of ∠ABC .

Misha Larkins [42]

From angle bisector theorem, we know that:

$\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{|BA|}{|BC|}\\\\\\\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{8}{10}=\dfrac{4}{5}$

Moreover:

$|AD|+|DC|=6$

so:

$|DC|=6-|AD|$

and

$\dfrac{|AD|}{|DC|}=\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\\\\dfrac{|AD|}{6-|AD|}=\dfrac{4}{5}\qquad\qquad\text{cross multiplying}\\\\\\ 5\cdot|AD|=4\cdot\big(6-|AD|\big)\\\\5\cdot|AD|=24-4\cdot|AD|\\\\5\cdot|AD|+4\cdot|AD|=24\\\\9\cdot|AD|=24\qquad|:9\\\\\\|AD|=\dfrac{24}{9}=\boxed{\dfrac{8}{3}}$
