Answer:

1.67hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken by Matt to weed the farm be x and that of Jim be y

When they both work together

x + y = 10

Working alone Jim takes as long as 5 times Matt .

That’s y = 5x

Substitute 5x for y in the first equation

That’s x + 5x = 10

6x = 10

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 10/6

x = 1.67 hrs

It takes Matt 1.67hrs to weed the farm alone

GREYUIT [131]
Base pay = $11 x 40 or $440

$605 - 440 = $165 in overtime
Overtime is 1.5 (1 and a half times) her usual salary

11 x 1.5 = $16.50

$165 ÷ $16.50 = 10 hours of overtime.

Which measure is the largest? 1.2 km, 120,600 cm, 1,220,000 mm, 120 meters
Margarita [4]
The first thing you should know to answer this question is the following conversions:
 1Km = 1000m
 1m = 1000mm
 1Km = 1000000mm
 1m = 100cm
 By making the conversions to the same unit, we can know what measure is greater:
 1.2Km = 1200m
 120600cm = 1206.00m
 1220000mm = 1220m
 120m = 120m
 Answer
 The biggest measure is
 1220000mm = 1220m

saul85 [17]

Answer: Annabelle is using  the a measure of central tendency defined as the Mode.

Step-by-step explanation: A measure of central tendency in its simplest definition is a single value or measure that can safely be used to represent all members belonging to an entire set of given data. Hence, as a good illustration, one figure can be used to confidently represent all other ninety nine figures where a set of one hundred figures were given.

The mean, median and mode are commonly accepted measures of central tendency.

The mode is the most frequently occurring value in a given set of data. As such, the modal value is statistically acceptable as a representative of the entire set of values or data.

If Annabelle measures the sides of 15 right triangles and based on her observations, she concludes that for any right  triangle the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, what she has done is taking the most frequently occurring value, and in her experiment, the most frequent of all observed data satisfies the Pythagorean Theorem.

That is why Annabelle can confidently make her assumption.
