First, u find conman denominator which is 15 so 2/5=6/15 & 1/3=5/15, which adds up to 11/15, so the remaining fraction that kendrs has to wash is 4/15

Answer:

\texttt{Fraction of the windows remain for Kendra to wash = }\frac{4}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Kendra washes windows in an office building. She washes 2/5 of the windows on Monday. She washes 1/3 of the windows on Tuesday.

Let w be the total number of windows.

\texttt{Windows washed on Monday = }\frac{2}{5}w\\\\\texttt{Windows washed on tuesday = }\frac{1}{3}w

\texttt{Total number of windows washed on Monday and Tuesday = }\frac{2}{5}w+\frac{1}{3}w\\\\\texttt{Total number of windows washed on Monday and Tuesday = }\frac{6+5}{15}w\\\\\texttt{Total number of windows washed on Monday and Tuesday = }\frac{11}{15}w

Remaining number of windows to be washed = Total number of windows - Total number of windows washed on Monday and Tuesday

\texttt{Remaining number of windows to be washed =}w-\frac{11}{15}w=\frac{4}{15}w

\texttt{Fraction of the windows remain for Kendra to wash = }\frac{4}{15}

Solve for the area using heron´s formula
Vadim26 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  252.8 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing side of the right triangle can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

  s² = 20² -16² = 400 -256 = 144

  s = 12 . . . . cm

The area of a right triangle is more easily found using the traditional area formula:

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(12 cm)(16 cm) = 96 cm² (left-side triangle)

The area of the triangle on the right can be found from Heron's formula. The semiperimeter is ...

  s = (16 +20 +23)/2 = 29.5

The area is ...

  A = √(29.5(29.5 -16)(29.5 -20)(29.5 -23)) = √(29.5·13.5·9.5·6.5)

  A = √24591.9375 ≈ 156.818 . . . . . cm² (right-side triangle)

Then the total area of the figure is ...

  A = 96 cm² +156.818 cm² = 252.818 cm² . . . . total area

A coach in a train can seat exactly 72 people for a trip. The train has 12 such coaches. If the train made 156 trips in full cap
Len [333]

Answer:

134,784 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's first find the number of people it can carry on 1 trip. We can do this by multiplying the number of people per coach, by the number of coaches.

  • 72 x 12
  • 864

The train carries 864 people per trip. We can find the number of people in 156 trips by multiplying 864 by 156.

  • 864 x 156
  • 134,784

The train, in full capacity, will carry 134,784 people in 156 trips.
