Leeson can proofread a newspaper copy in 4 hours. If Ryan proofreads the same newspaper copy, it takes 3 hours. How
long would it take if they worked together?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

It would take that long because they work together, at 4 hours Ryan's 3 are subtracted and the result would be 1 hour. This is because while one of us makes the errors in the first or second paragraph, the other is checking the next and thus they finish faster.

Answer 2

If they worked together they can finish the given task in [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours.

Given that, Leeson can proofread a newspaper copy in 4 hours. If Ryan proofreads the same newspaper copy, it takes 3 hours.

We need to find how long would it take if they worked together.

What is the formula to find the work done?

Work Done = Time Taken × Rate of Work. Rate of Work = 1 / Time Taken. Time Taken = 1 / Rate of Work. If a piece of work is done in x number of days, then the work done in one day = 1/x.

Now, the work done by Leeson [tex]=\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and the work done by Ryan [tex]=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

So, work done by both together [tex]=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3+4}{12}=\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours.

Therefore, if they worked together they can finish the given task in [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours.

Malia ran 7/12 of a mile. Shona ran 3/4 of a mile. Who ran further?

Answers

Answer:

Shona ran farther

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 *3/3 is 9/12 and 9/12 is bigger than 7/12

Answer:

Shona

Step-by-step explanation:

Both fractions have different denominators. To get a better picture of who ran further, let's have both fractions have the same denominator.

Let's convert the smaller denominator to the bigger one.

In order to do this, we will multiply top and bottom by 3:

[tex]\frac{3}{4} *\frac{3}{3} \\\frac{9}{12}[/tex]

Now, we compare the two fractions by seeing which numerator is closer to denominator.

From this comparison, the converted fraction, [tex]\frac{9}{12}[/tex] is closer to 12.

Therefore, Shona ran further.

Answers

Answer:

750 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem:

In a triangle, a segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of two sides is parallel and half the length of the third side.

In triangle LMN, segment DF has endpoints which are midpoints of sides LM and MN. That makes segment DF parallel to side LN and half the length of LN.

The shortest path from point D to point N is segments DF and FN.

Point F is the midpoint of segment MN.

MN = 800 m

FN = (1/2)MN = (1/2)(800 m) = 400 m

From the theorem,

DF = (1/2)LN

DF = (1/2)(700 m) = 350 m

shortest path = DF + FN = 350 m + 400 m = 750 m

Answer: 750 m

Other Questions
In this speech Roosevelt termed, for the first time, journalists as muckrakers.Muck-rake- n. A rake for scraping up muck or dungMuckrake- v. To search out and publicly expose real or apparent misconduct of a prominent individual or businessSATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1906In Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress you may recall the description of the Man with the Muck-rake, the man who could look no way but downward, with the muck-rake in his hand; who was offered a celestial crown for his muck-rake, but who would neither look up nor regard the crown he was offered, but continued to rake to himself the filth of the floor.In Pilgrim's Progress the Man with the Muck-rake is set forth as the example of him whose vision is fixed on carnal instead of on spiritual things. Yet he also typifies the man who in this life consistently refuses to see aught that is lofty, and fixes his eyes with solemn intentness only on that which is vile and debasing. Now, it is very necessary that we should not flinch from seeing what is vile and debasing. There is filth on the floor and it must be scraped up with the muck-rake; and there are times and places where this service is the most needed of all the services that can be performed. But the man who never does anything else, who never thinks or speaks or writes, save of his feats with the muck-rake, speedily becomes, not a help to society, not an incitement to good, but one of the most potent forces for evil.There are, in the body politic, economic and social, many and grave evils, and there is urgent necessity for the sternest war upon them. There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil man whether politician or business man, every evil practice, whether in politics, in business, or in social life. I hail as a benefactor every writer or speaker, every man who, on the platform, or in book, magazine, or newspaper, with merciless severity makes such attack, provided always that he in his turn remembers that the attack is of use only if it is absolutely truthful. . . To assail the great and admitted evils of our political and industrial life with such crude and sweeping generalizations as to include decent men in the general condemnation means the searing of the public conscience. There results a general attitude either of cynical belief in and indifference to public corruption or else of a distrustful inability to discriminate between the good and the bad. Either attitude is fraught with untold damage to the country as a whole. The fool who has not sense to discriminate between what is good and what is bad is well-nigh as dangerous as the man who does discriminate and yet chooses the bad. There is nothing more distressing to every good patriot, to every good American, than the hard, scoffing spirit which treats the allegation of dishonesty in a public man as a cause for laughter. Such laughter is worse than the crackling of thorns under a pot, for it denotes not merely the vacant mind, but the heart in which high emotions have been choked before they could grow to fruition.In this speech Roosevelt states, "There is nothing more distressing to every good patriot, to every good American, than the hard, scoffing spirit which treats the allegation of dishonesty in a public man as a cause for laughter." What else could Roosevelt say to strengthen his position? False accusations of bad character could lead to war. Journalists have a responsibility to protect the government. Poor journalism results in public disinterest. The attempt to make money from attacks on character is immoral. f(x)=2 |x+5| - 8vertex = (-5, -8)what is the line of symmetry? DD.
