Answer:
x = 2/9 (or = 0.222)
Step-by-step explanation:
1/x + 1/(3x) =6 (multiply both sides by 3x)
(1/x) (3x) + [1/(3x)](3x) =6 (3x)
3 + 1 = 18x
4 = 18x
x = 4/18
x = 2/9 (or = 0.222)
Answer: Kayla used 2 5/24 cups of paint all together.
Step-by-step explanation:
Kayla paints a bookcase by using
1 5/6 cups of paint on the outside of the bookcase. Converting 1 5/6 cups to improper fraction, it becomes 11/6 cups of paint.
She also used 3/8 cup of paint on the inside.
Therefore, the total number of cups of paint that Kayla used all together would be
11/6 + 3/8 = (44 + 9)/24 = 53/24 cups of paint. Converting to mixed fraction, it becomes
2 5/24 cups of paint
Answer:
900 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
You can draw the pattern that would need to be folded to make the figure, then find the area of that pattern (or "net"). It consists of a rectangle 10 yards wide and 60 yards long, together with another that is 20 yards long and 15 yards wide. The total area is the sum of these ...
... area = (60 yd)(10 yd) + (20 yd)(15 yd)
... = 600 yd² +300 yd²
... = 900 yd²
Answer:
2.04 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Falling objects near the surface of the earth have an acceleration of -9.81 m/s².
Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time:
a = (v − v₀) / t
-9.81 = (-30.0 − (-10.0)) / t
-9.81 = -20.0 / t
t = 2.04
It takes 2.04 seconds.
