Working alone, Dan can paint a fence in ten hours. One day his friend Natalie helped him and it only took 4.12
hours. How long would it take Natalie to do it alone?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Approximately 7 hours

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's say there are 1000 boards to be painted.

Working alone, Dan can paint 1000 boards in 10 hours, so his unit rate is 1000/10 = 100 boards per hour.

In 4.12 hours, he gets 4.12*100 = 412 boards painted. There are 1000-412 = 588 boards left which Natalie takes care of. This is when the two are working together.

Her unit rate is (588 boards)/(4.12 hours) = 142.718447 boards per hour. That value is approximate.

We multiply her unit rate by some unknown amount of time x, and this product will be the 1000 boards we started with. This way she would get the job down by herself.

So the equation we need to solve is

142.718447x = 1000

--------------------

We divide both sides by 142.718447 to fully isolate x.

142.718447x = 1000

x = 1000/(142.718447)

x = 7.006803

That value is approximate.

If we round to the nearest whole number, then x = 7

So it takes about 7 hours for Natalie to get the job done if she works alone.

-------------------

Side note:

An alternative pathway is to solve the equation

1/10 + 1/x = 1/(4.12)

For a project in her Geometry class, Madelyn uses a mirror on the ground to measure
the height of her school's flagpole. She walks a distance of 8.75 meters from her
school, then places a mirror on flat on the ground, marked with an X at the center.
She then steps 1.7 meters to the other side of the mirror, until she can see the top of
the flagpole clearly marked in the X. Her partner measures the distance from her eyes
to the ground to be 1.65 meters. How tall is the flagpole? Round your answer to the
nearest hundredth of a meter.
1.65 m
1.
1.7 m
-8.75 m

Answers

An image is always formed at the back of a mirror. Thus, the appropriate option is D. -8.75 m. The flagpole is 8.75 m tall.

Let the angle of depression from Madelyn's point of view be represented by θ. Then applying the required trigonometric function, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1.65}{1.7}[/tex]

Tan θ = 0.9706

θ = [tex]Tan^{-1}[/tex] 0.9706

  = [tex]44.2^{o}[/tex]

θ = [tex]44.2^{o}[/tex]

Let the height of the flag be represented by h. And for a given mirror, the angle of incidence is equal to that of reflection. Then;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

         = [tex]\frac{h}{8.75}[/tex]

0.9706 = [tex]\frac{h}{8.75}[/tex]

h = 0.9706 x 8.75

  = 8.49275

h = 8.5 m

Since the image is formed at the back of the mirror, then the flagpole is 8.5 m.

Therefore the appropriate answer is option D. -8.75 m

If you think this is the best answer please mark me as brainliest

After 1 hour, Yao had completed 25% (1/4) of the 2-hour Mathematics paper.

In order to understand the fraction of time Yao had spent on the Mathematics paper after 1 hour, let's break down the problem. Yao was given a 2-hour Mathematics paper to complete, and he answered 5 questions in the first hour.

Now, let's calculate the fraction of time that had passed. To do this, we can set up a ratio of the time Yao had spent to the total time available. The time Yao spent is 1 hour, and the total time available is 2 hours. So the fraction of time that had gone can be represented as:

= Time spent / Total time

= 1 hour / 2 hours

= 1/2

Therefore, after 1 hour, Yao had completed half of the allotted time. However, we are asked to express this fraction in terms of questions answered. Yao had answered 5 questions out of a total of 20 questions.

To express the fraction of time in terms of questions answered, we can set up another ratio. The questions Yao answered is 5, and the total number of questions is 20. So the fraction of time that had gone can be represented as:

= Questions answered / Total questions

= 5 questions / 20 questions

= 1/4

Hence, after 1 hour, Yao had completed 1/4 of the total questions in the Mathematics paper. This means he still had 3/4 (or 75%) of the questions to complete in the remaining hour.
