Answer:

  210 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason's rate of peeling is ...

  (15 potatoes)/(25 minutes) = 15/25 potatoes/minute = 3/5 potatoes/minute

Janette's rate of peeing potatoes is ...

  (8 potatoes)/(6 minutes) = 4/3 potatoes/minute

Their combined rate is ...

  (3/5 +4/3) = (9 +20)/15 = 29/15 . . . . potatotes/minute

Then the time required for 406 potatoes is ...

  (406 potatoes)/(29/15 potatoes/minute) = (406×15/29) minutes

  = 210 minutes

I ONLY NEED HELP ON NUMBER 2
REY [17]
So, the area of a circle is a=pi r^2
so do that and get a=pi(4)
and since the circle touches the edge of the rectangle, the rectangle is 4 cm tall, so 4*8 is 32 and pi(4) is about 12.56, so 32-12.56 is 19.44, and I believe that is the answer. (19.4)

What is the range of possible sizes for side x? _ < x < _
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

  0.5 < x < 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side of the triangle must be longer than the difference of the other two sides:

  x > (8.5 -8.0)

  x > 0.5

And it must be shorter than their sum:

  x < (8.5 +8.0)

  x < 16.5

The third side must be in the range ...

  0.5 < x < 16.5

_____

These limits are a direct consequence of the triangle inequality, which requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the length of the longest side.
