Answer 1

Answer: First, multiply 1/6 times 8. This gets you 8/6, which reduces to 4/3. This means that she has spent 4/3 of a year on the farm. Now if you'd like, you can simplify this to 1 1/3 years, depending on what your teacher wants.

Jeff hikes 1/2 mile every 15 minutes,or 1/4 hour.Lisa hikes 1/3 miles every 10 minutes, or 1/6 hour.How far do they each hike in 1 hour ?2 hour?

Answers

Answer: They hike 30 miles and 20 miles in 1 hour respectively and they hike 60 miles and 40 miles in 2 hours respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of mile Jeff hikes in every 15 minutes = $(1)/(2)$

As we know that

1 hour = 60 minutes

So, number of mile Jeff hikes in every 1 hour = $(1)/(2)* 60=30\ miles$

number of miles Jeff hikes in every 2 hours = $30* 2=60\ miles$

Number of miles Lisa hikes in every 10 minutes = $(1)/(3)$

Number of miles Lisa hikes in every 1 hour = $(1)/(3)* 60=20\ miles$

Number of miles Lisa hikes in every 2 hours = $20* 2=40\ miles$

Hence, they hike 30 miles and 20 miles in 1 hour respectively and they hike 60 miles and 40 miles in 2 hours respectively.

jeff hikes 1 mile every 30 min so in one hour he hiked 2 miles and in 2 hours he hiked 4 miles. im sorry but im not sure about lisa

If mAC=178 degrees, and mBC=42 degrees, what is m angle BDC?

Answers

The measurement of angle BDC is 44 degrees. This can be computed by subtracting 178 degrees from 180 degrees which is 2 degrees. Then using the given mBC which is 42 degrees add this to the 2 degrees which came from the difference computed above. Then it will give us the answer of 44 degrees.
