Answer:

Tim gets £8

Sam gets £32

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio is 1:4

So, Total parts are 1+4 = 5

Dividing it by total parts

= \frac{40}{5}

= £ 8

So, Tim gets £8

But,

Sam gets 4(£8)

= Sam gets £32

In a camp there is food for 400 persons for 23 days-if 60 more persons join the camp find the number of days the provision will
Deffense [45]

The answer is 20 days.

After 60 people have joined there will be 460 people in the camp.

The number of days which the provisions will last will be proportional less after the 60 people have joined and will be:-

(400/460) * 23

= (20 / 23) * 23

=  20

If r is the midpoint of qs rs=2x-4, st= 4x-1 and rt = 8x-43 find qs
sammy [17]

Answer:

QS=68\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of x

we know that

r is the midpoint of qs

so

QR=RS

QS=QR+RS------> QS=2RS -----> equation A

RT=RS+ST ----> equation B

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Substitute the given values in the equation B and solve for x

8x-43=(2x-4)+(4x-1)

8x-43=6x-5

8x-6x=43-5

2x=38

x=19

step 2

Find the value of RS

RS=2x-4

substitute the value of x

RS=2(19)-4

RS=34\ units

step 3

Find the value of QS

Remember equation A

QS=2RS

so

QS=2(34)=68\ units

In a trapezoid the lengths of bases are 11 and 18. The lengths of legs are 3 and 7. The extensions of the legs meet at some poin
FrozenT [24]

Answer: The length of segments between this point and the vertices of greater base are 7\frac{5}{7} and 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ABCD is the trapezoid, ( shown in below diagram)

In which AB is the greater base and AB = 18 DC= 11, AD= 3 and BC = 7

Let P is the point where The extended legs meet,

So, according to the question, we have to find out : AP and BP

In Δ APB and Δ DPC,

∠ DPC ≅ ∠APB ( reflexive)

∠ PDC ≅ ∠ PAB    ( By alternative interior angle theorem)

And, ∠ PCD ≅ ∠ PBA  ( By alternative interior angle theorem)

Therefore, By AAA similarity postulate,

\triangle APB\sim \triangle D PC

Let, DP =x

⇒ \frac{3+x}{18} = \frac{x}{11}

⇒  33 +11x = 18x

⇒ x = 33/7= 4\frac{5}{7}

Thus, PD= 4\frac{5}{7}

But, AP= PD + DA

AP= 4\frac{5}{7}+3 =7\frac{5}{7}

Now, let PC =y,

⇒ \frac{7+y}{18} = \frac{y}{11}

⇒ 77 + 11y = 18y

⇒ y = 77/7 = 11

Thus, PC= 11

But, PB= PC + CB

PB= 11+7 = 18

One of the sides of a parallelogram is 4.2 cm and the altitude to that side is 3.6 cm. Find the perimeter of the parallelogram i
dexar [7]

Area of parallelogram = base * height
base 1 = 4.2 cm
height 1 = 3.6 cm
∴ Area = 4.2 * 3.6 = 15.12

let the other base 2 = x
∴ the altitude of this base = height 2 = 2.4
∴Area = 2.4 x = 15.12
Solve for x
                 ∴ x = 6.3 cm

∴ The perimeter of parallelogram = 2( base 1 + base 2)
                                                      = 2 ( 4.2 + 6.3 ) = 21 cm

A painter is painting a wall with an area of 150 ft2. He decides to paint half of the wall and then take a break. After his brea
Novosadov [1.4K]
The answer is 141.35 ft²

Before the first break, it was painted:
150 ft² ÷ 2 = 75 ft²
Now it's left:
150 ft² - 75 ft² = 75 <span>ft²

Before the second break, it was painted:
75 </span>ft² ÷ 2 = 37.5 <span>ft²
Now it's left:
75 </span>ft² - 37.5 ft² = 37.5 <span>ft²

Before the third break, it was painted:
37.5 </span>ft² ÷ 2 = 18.75 <span>ft²
</span><span>Now it's left:
</span>37.5 ft² - 18.75 ft² = 18.75 <span>ft²
</span>
<span>Before the fourth break, it was painted:
</span>18.75 ft² ÷ 2 = 9.375 <span>ft²
</span><span>Now it's left:
</span>18.75 ft² - 9.375 ft² = 9.375 <span>ft²
</span>
<span>Before the fourth break, it was painted:
</span>9.375 ft² ÷ 2 = 4.6875 <span>ft²
</span><span>Now it's left:
</span>9.375 ft² - 4.6875 ft² = 4.6875 ft²

Now, we will sum what he painted for now:
75 ft² + 37.5 ft² + 18.75 ft² + 9.375 ft² 4.6875 ft² = 141.3125 ft² ≈ 141.35 ft²

When the painter takes his fifth break, there will be <span>141.35 ft² of the wall painted.</span>
