Theresa has hired Chuck and Diana to paint a fence. Diana can paint 150 fence posts in the same time it takes Chuck to paint 130

fence posts, which can be shown using the following relationship where d and c are the respective rates at which Diana and Chuck can paint fence posts: 150 over d equals 130 over c Also, Diana can paint 10 fence posts more per hour than Chuck. How many fence posts can Chuck paint per hour?

Answer: Chuck can paint 65 posts per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have here is:

Diana can paint 150 fence posts in a time T

Chuck can pint 130 fence posts in a time T.

In one hour, Diana can paint 10 more fence posts than Chuck.

If D is the hourly rate of Daian, and C is the hourly rate for Chuck, we have:

D = 150/T

C = 130/T

D = C + 10

we can replace the last equation in the first one and geT:

C + 10 =150/T

C = 130/T

Now we can replace the bottom equation in the above one:

130/T + 10 = 150/T

10 = 150/T - 130/T =  20/T

T*10 = 20

T = 20/10 = 2

So T is 2 hours, then whe have:

D = 150post/2hours = 75 posts per hour.

C = 130 posts/2hours = 65 posts per hour.

Which statements are true regarding the regular dodecagon? Check all that apply.
ladessa [460]
A dodecagon has 12 sides.  That means that the smallest angle of rotational symmetry is 360/12 or 30°.  All of its angles of rotational symmetry will be multiples of 30, including 180°.  135°, since it is not a multiple of 30°, is not a rotational angle for this figure.  The order of °rotational symmetry is 12, as there are 12 sides you can turn this figure to (since it is regular).

It is said that a student’s college GPA (grade point index) can be predicted by his/her HOCS (higher- order cognitive skills) su
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

apart from using the hoc to predict the college students gpa, some other variables can be used

1. the students intelligent quotient

2. ability to remember

3. study time

4. gym practice

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. the students intelligent quotient</u>

<u>gpa</u><u> </u>has a positive relationship with iq. they are both directly related. The more the iq of a a student, the greater is his ability to understand and have a good gpa. the slope will therefore be positive and be in an upward direction.

2. <u>ability to remember</u>

the gpa of students who have a good ability to remember but do not have a good grasp of the subject may not be high. the slope would be in a slightly upward direction

3. <u>study time</u>

gpa and practice have a positive relationship. the more a student studies, the more likelihood exists of having a better gpa. the slope would be upward bound.

4. <u>gym</u><u> </u><u>practice</u>

gpa and gym practice are not related so the slope would be in a downward direction.

when interpreting the direction of relationship after carrying out such an analysis, it is useful to watch out for the accompanying signs of the variables. if the sign of the beta coefficient is positive then a positive relationship with the dependent variable exists.

Mrs. Kong uses 1 over 3 of a stick of butter in a sauce she then uses 5 over 8 of the butter to make garlic bread what fraction
Allisa [31]
Answer=1/24

1/3+5/8=
to solve for this, we need the denominators of the fractions to match.

The LCM of 3 and 8 is 24

1/3=8/24
5/8=15/24

8/24+15/24=23/24

Now if we're using 23/24, then only 1/24 is left.

24/24-23/24=1/24
