Let us say that the task of cleaning the house is equal to 1 job. Therefore the rates are:

 

rate of Owl = 1 job / 25 minutes

rate of eeyore = 1 job / 40 minutes

 

So working together, the time is:

(1 / 25) + (1 / 40) = 1 / t

0.065 = 1 / t

t = 15.38 minutes

 

So it takes about 15.38 minutes working together.

vredina [299]

Answer:

1, 4, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider right triangle JKL with right angle JKL and height KM. This height divides triangle into two right triangles KML and KMJ.

Note that

m\angle MKL=90^{\circ}-m\angle MLK=m\angle KJM\\ \\m\angle JKM=90^{\circ}-m\angle KJM=m\angle MLK

So, by AA theorem, we have three similar triangles

\triangle JKL\sim \triangle JMK\sim \triangle KML

So, options 1, 4 and 5 are true

Dafna1 [17]
There are a total of 297 students in the 7th grade. Rough estimates would say that about half of that number are boys and half are girls. Asking only 50 random girls would be biased because not only would it not be all of the girls (the number of girls would be around 148 or 149) but it would also be ignoring the roughly 148 to 149 boys there are on estimate. The sample would be biased because it would be ignoring the opinions of more than half the seventh grade.

Select the correct answer.
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

<h3>B. \$10.45</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

CPI stands for Consumer Price Index, which is the measure of average prices to goods and services.

So, in this case, we have to find the average price for the given basket in year 2.

We know that in year 2, a toothbrush tube costs $1.25 and a tube of toothpaste costs $2.10. If we have 5 toothbrushes and 2 tubes of toothpaste, the total cost would be

5 \ toothbrushes=5(\$1.25)=\$6.25\\2 \ toothpaste \ tubes=2(\$2.10)=\$4.20

Now, the CPI would be the sum of these costs

CPI = \$6.25 + \$4.20=\$10.45

Therefore, the Consume Price Index for this basket of goods is

B. \$10.45

Lorena calculated the slope of the linear function that is represented by the table of values as shown. x y –10 15 –8 27 –6 39 –
Anvisha [2.4K]

She made a mistake when she subtracted x1 from x2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

a)

The formula used by Lorena to calculate the slope between 2 points is correct

So the statement given in option 1 is not the reason for her mistake

Step 2:

b)

She has taken the fourth and fifth point and correctly used the x and y co ordinates to calculate the slope

Hence the statement in second option is not true

Step 3:

c)

While calculating the slope the denominator is -2 - (-4) . This gives 2 as the answer. But she has made a mistake in this subtraction giving -6 as the answer.

Hence she has made a mistake in subtracting x1 from x2 and this statement is true

Step 4:

d)

She has not made any mistake in subtracting y1 from y2. Hence this statement is not true
