Working alone, Mr. Tough can grade the final exams in 12 hours. His assistant, Mrs. Nice, cam grade the same exams in 15 hours. What fraction of the exams can Mr.Tough and Mrs.Nice grade in 1 hour if they work together?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9n/60

Step-by-step explanation:

add 1/12 + 1/15 which = 5/60 + 4/60.

= 9/60

YAY!!!!!!!

Answer 2

The fraction of the exams that Mr Tough and Mrs Nice grade in 1 hour if they work together is 3/20

What are fractions?

In Maths, a fraction is used to represent the portion/part of the whole thing. A fraction has two parts, namely numerator and denominator. There are proper fractions, improper fractions and mixed fractions.

Example: 2/5, 1/4 etc.

How to solve Work and Time problems:

We will this equation,

rate × time = work done

For this problem:

             Mr Tough's rate:

                          Mr Tough's rate × 12 hours = final exam

                          Mr Tough's rate = 1/12

             Mrs.Nice's' rate:

                            Mrs .Nice's' rate × 15 hours = final exam

                            Mrs .Nice's' rate = 1/15

To make this into a solvable equation,  find the total time (T) needed for Mr Tough and Mrs.Nice to grade the final exam. This time is the sum of the rates of Mr Tough and Mrs.Nicea, or:

Total time:

T(1/12 hours + 1/15 hours) = final exam

T =  final exam / (1/12 + 1/15)

Simplifying we get,

T =  final exam / (0.15)

Now, to finish in 1 hour we will find what fraction of the final exam they can grade, so taking T = 1 hour,

1 hour =  final exam / (0.15)

By further simplifying,

final exam = 1 × 0.15

                 = 0.15

                 = 15/ 100

                 = 3/20

Therefore, 3/20 fraction of the final exam they can grade if they work together for 1 hour.

A car is traveling a rate of 120 kilometers per hour. What is the cars rate in mile per hour? How many miles will the car travel in 2 hours? In your computation assume that 1 mike is equal to 1.6 kilometers

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

120 ÷ 1.6 = 75.

so 75 miles per hour.

75 × 2 = 150

therefore 150 miles in 2 hours

Answer:

120 km/ 1 hour

We need to convert kilometers into miles, so given the information below (1 mile = 1.6 km), we divide 120 km by 1.6 km because 1.6 km is equivalent to 1 mile.

120km/1.6km

= 75 miles, so therefore the cars rate will be:-

75 miles/ 1 hour

To see how many miles are in 2 hours, we must multiply the unit rate(75 miles/ 1 hour) by 2.

75 miles/ 1 hour x 2/2 hours

75 x 2

______ = 150/2, so the car will travel 150 miles in 2 hours.

the line y=ax-1 is parallel to the line by-(a+1)x=2. These two lines have the same distance to the origin. find a and b

Answers

By using the parallel condition and the fact that the distance to the origin is the same, we will see that a = 1 and b = 2.

How to find the values of a and b?

First, remember that two lines are parallel if have the same slope and different y-intercept.

In this case, we know that

y = a*x - 1

b*y - (a + 1)*x = 2

Are parallel, if we write both of them in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y = a*x - 1

y = (a + 1)*x/b + 2/b

Note that because both of the lines are parallel, the slopes must be equal, then we have that:

(a + 1)/b = a

Then if we know that the distance of both lines to the origin is the same, we have that:

|-1/(√(a^2 + 1))| = | (2/b)/(√(((a + 1)/b)^2 + 1))|

Because the slopes are equal the denominators are equal, this means that:

|-1| = |2/b|

And the y-intercepts must be different, this means that:

b = 2

now we can solve:

(a + 1)/b = a

(a + 1)/2 = a

a + 1 = 2a

1 = 2a - a = a

a = 1 and b = 2.

Answer:

  91.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to find the a.pex angle of an isosceles triangle with all side lengths given. One of them is using the Law of Cosines:

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

Solving for the angle C, we find ...

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))

__

Here, we have a=b=14 and c=20. The angle is ...

  C = arccos((14² +14² -20²)/(2·14·14)) = arccos(-8/392)

  C ≈ 91.16938°

The interior angle at the peak of the roof is about 91.2°.

The expected value is ​$____
The profit is $_____

Answers

Answer:

The expected value is $375

The profit is $6,500,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of claim:

15000, 30000, 70000

Probability:

1/100, 1/200, 1/400

So the expected value of the claim is:

15000 × (1/100) + 30000 × (1/200) + 70000 × (1/400) = 475

Given that an insurance policy sells for $800 and the expected value of the claim is $475.

So, the expected value of the companies profit is = $(800 – 475) = $325.

If the company sells 20,000 policies then the expected profit is = $(20000 × 325) = $6,500,000

Thus, The expected value (to the company) per policy sold is $375 and the expected profit is $6,500,000.

Find the measures of the interior angles that maximize the area of an isosceles trapezoid
where the length of the non-parallel sides are each 4 inches and the length the shorter of
the two bases is 6 inches.

Answers

The measure of the angle that would maximize the area of this isosceles trapezoid is equal to 0.4395 rad.

Given the following data:

Base length = 6 inches.Sides length = 4 inches.

How to calculate the area of a trapezium.

Mathematically, the area of a trapezium is given by this formula:

A = ½ × (a + b) × h

A = ½ × (12 + 2l) × h

A = h(6 + l)

Next, we would derive a mathematical expression for A in terms of h as follows;

Let l = 4sinθ Let h = 4cosθ

A = (6 + 4sin(θ)) × 4cosθ

In order to determine the value of θ for which the area of this isosceles trapezoid is maximized, we would differentiate the area (A) with respect to angle (θ):

Note: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1   ⇒ cos²θ = 1 - sin²θ.

[tex]\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16 cos^{2} \theta - 4sin \theta(6+4sin \theta)\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = 16 cos^{2} \theta - 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16(1-sin^{2} \theta)- 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = - 32 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta+16\\\\32 sin^{2} \theta + 24sin\theta-16=0[/tex]

Next, we would use the quadratic formula to solve for the value of sinθ.

Mathematically, the quadratic formula is given by this equation:

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where:

a = 32.b = 24.c = -16.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{24^2 - 4(32)(-16)}}{2(32)}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{2624}}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\;+\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{27.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = 0.4255\\\\\theta = sin^{-1}(0.4255)[/tex]

θ = 0.4395 rad.

Note: We would only consider the positive value of the quadratic root.

For the obtuse interior angles of the trapezoid, we have [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} +0.4395)[/tex]

Similarly, the measure of the acute interior angles of the trapezoid is [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} -0.4395)[/tex]
