Three postal workers can sort a stack of mail 10 minutes , 35 minutes, and 70 minutes respectively. find how long it takes them to sort the mail if all three work together

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of stacks per minute is ...

  1/10 +1/35 +1/70 = (7+2+1)/70 = 1/7 . . . . stacks per minute

The rate in minutes per stack is the reciprocal of this.

Working together, the workers can sort a stack of mail in 7 minutes.

A shape has 2 pairs of parallel sides and no right angles. Its sides are all the same length. What shape is it?

A. Rhombus
B. Trapezoid
C. Rectangle
D. Square

Answers

Answer: The attached figure is a parallelogram with one corner chopped off, making it a pentagon. It still has two pairs of parallel sides & no right angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is the word that most generally describes such a figure. A square or rectangle, which do, of course have right angles, are special cases of the parallelogram.

I am assuming (perhaps unjustifiably) that when you say “two pairs of parallel sides” you are talking of a figure with no other sides than those four.

There are, of course, many other polygons (hexagons, octagons, decagons, etc) which have two pairs of parallel sides and other sides, any two of which may or may not be parallel.

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this shape is a quadrilateral, the sum of the interior angles is 360.

Equation:

81 + 20x - 16 + 15x + 30 + 16x + 10 = 360

51x + 105 = 360

51x = 360 - 105

51x = 255

x = 5

Nicholas performs an experiment in which he pulls a marble from a bag. In his experiment, he finds that he is twice as likely to pull a red marble as a blue marble. If Nicholas pulls 10 red marbles, how many blue marbles does he pull?

Answers

Answer:

Nicholas pulls 5 blue marbles from the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Nicholas performs an experiment in which he pulls a marble from a bag, and in his experiment, he finds that he is twice as likely to pull a red marble as a blue marble, to determine, if Nicholas pulls 10 red marbles, how many blue marbles does he pull, the following calculation must be performed:

10/2 = X

5 = X

Therefore, Nicholas pulls 5 blue marbles from the bag.

Explanation:

Since we are not asked what to fine, we can find the perimeter of the rectangle

Perimeter = 2(L+W)

Perimeter = 2(2x+1+5x-7)

Perimeter = 2(7x - 6)

Perimeter = 14x - 12

Hence the perimeter of the rectangle is 14x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

By intersecting tangent and secant theorem:

[tex] {(x + 2)}^{2} = x(x + 5) \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 4x + 4 = {x}^{2} + 5x \\ \\ 4x + 4 = 5x \\ \\ 4 = 5x - 4x \\ \\ 4 = x \\ \\ x = 4[/tex]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When a secant and a tangent are drawn to a circle from a point outside the circle, the lengths are related this way:

The square of the length of the tangent equals the product of the length of the secant and the length of the segment of the secant outside the circle.

(x + 2)² = x(x + 5)

x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 5x

x = 4

Answer: 8.9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hypotenuse, use the formula [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

The two "legs" are a and b (it doesn't matter which leg is a and which leg is b), but the most important thing is that the hypotenuse is c.

So, we now know that we have to solve for c. To solve for c, substitute the values shown in the image for a and b.

[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]8^2+4^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]16 + 64 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]80 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{80}[/tex] = c

Hello :) to find x you will have to use tan. It would be tan51=x/8 I’m order to get the answer you would have to 8 times tan51 in your calculator. Your answer should be 9.879 which you can round to 9.9. I hope I helped

Hey there! :)

Please keep in mind that SOH-CAH-TOA is a life saver when it comes to trig! Where:

- SOH = Sin: opposite over hypotenuse

- CAH = Cos: adjacent over hypotenuse

- TOA = Tan: opposite over adjacent

The question is asking us to find the value of x given the following located in the image provided.

Because we've been given 51°, we'll use this angle to determine whether we're using Sin, Cos, or Tan.

We must now look at the other given variables in this triangle - specifically where they are located.

While looking at our given angle (51°), we see that x is located on the opposite side of 51° while 8 is located adjacent (also known as next) to 51°.

Because of this, we now know that we'll be using Tan (opposite over adjacent) to find the value of x because our given values are opposite and adjacent to 51°.

We now set up our equation to find the value of x:

tan (51°) = [tex]\frac{x}{8}[/tex] ⇒ we set it up this way because x is opposite of 51° & 8 is adjacent to it.

Now, we must remove all fractions. We can do this by multiplying both sides by 8.

8 × tan (51°) = [tex]\frac{x}{8}[/tex] × 8

Now, we simplify.

8 × tan (51°) = x

Now, we plug this into our calculator. Make sure your calculator is in degrees mode since we are using degrees, not radians.

8 × 1.2348 = x

Simplify.

x = 9.9

Therefore, angle x is 9.9

Hope this helped! :)

What is the area of the sector for the following circle? Round your answer to 4 decimal places. *

Answers

Answer:

13.0833 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Radius (r) = 5 ft

Angle sustained by the sector (θ) = 360 – 300

= 60°

Pi (π) = 3.14

Area of sector (A) =?

The area of the sector can be obtained as follow:

A = θ/360 × πr²

A = 60/360 × 3.14 × 5²

A = 1/6 × 3.14 × 25

A = 1/6 × 78.5

A = 78.5/6

A = 13.0833 ft²

Thus, the area of the sector is 13.0833 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of the minor sector will be ,

> 360 - 300 = 60° .

Area of sector :-

> Area = ∅ / 360 × πr²

> A = 60/360 × 3.14 × 5ft²

> A = 13.09 ft²
