225-275 and then you just have to simplify which turns out to be 9-11 minutes so for every 9 minutes Sylvia works Paul works 11

Answer: 9 / 11

That is approximately 0.82


Explanation:

The ratio of two quantities x and y is x divided by y, i.e. the quotient x / y.

So, the ratio of Sylia's work time to Paul's work time is:

Sylvia's work time
---------------------------
Paul's work time

Given that you have the times in mixed units, hours and minutes, you must convert to one of the, either hours or minutes.

If you choose to work with hours, this is the work:

1) Silvia's time: 3 hours and 45 minutes = 3 hours + 45 / 60 hours = 3hours + 0.75 hours = 3.75 hours

2) Paul's work time: 4 hours and 35 minutes = 4 hours + 35/60 hours = 4 hours + 7/12 hours = (48+7)/12 = 55/12 hours ≈ 4.58 hours

3) Ratio:

Sylvia's work time             3.75 hours            3.75*12         45          9
------------------------- =      --------------------- = ---------------- =  -------- =   -----
Paul's work time               (55/12) hours            55              55         11

≈ 0.82

You can calculate the ratio using minutes and shall obtain the same result. Look:

1) 3 hours + 45 minutes = 3 * 60  minutes + 45 minutes = 180 minutes + 45 minutes = 225 minutes

2) 4 hours + 35 minutes = 4*60 minutes + 35 minutes = 240 minutes + 35 minutes = 275 minutes

3)

225 minutes          9
----------------- =     ------, which is the same result obtained above.
275 minutes         11

Substitute the values for a, b, and c into b2 – 4ac to determine the discriminant. Which quadratic equations will have two real
hoa [83]

Answer: 0=2x^2-7x-9\\0=4x^2-3x-1\\0=x^2-2x-8


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the standard quadratic equation is  ax^2+bx+c=0

Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.

1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9

b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0

So it has only 1 real number solution.

3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16=25>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8

b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32=36>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

5. a=3, b=5, c=3

b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36=-9

Thus it does not has real solutions.

Calcula el área de un rombo cuya diagonal mayor mide 10 cm y cuya diagonal menor es la mitad de la mayor.
attashe74 [19]

Respuesta:

25 cm²

Explicación paso a paso:

El área A de un rombo tiene:

A = pq / 2

Donde pyq son las diagonales

Tomando p como la diagonal más grande = 10 cm

Diagonal más pequeña, q = 1/2 * 10 = 5cm

Por lo tanto, el área del rombo es:

A = (10 * 5) / 2

A = 50/2

A = 25 cm²

PLEASE HELP:)))))))))
slava [35]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , thus

y = 180° - (55 + 41)° = 180° - 96° = 84°

z and y are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

z = 180° - 84° = 96°

x and 109° are alternate exterior angles and congruent, thus

x = 109°
