- A rope 3
A rope 2.82 m long is divided equally into six pieces. How long will the two pieces be? - Rectangular 7376
Two brothers wanted to have the same area of land. One chose a square plot with a side length of 60m. The second brother chose a rectangular plot of land with a side length of 80m. What is the width of the second brother's plot? - 2x cone
Circular cone height 36 cm was cut plane parallel with the base. The volume of these two small cones is the same. Calculate the height of the smaller cone. - Vocational 7639
From the last year of one primary school, 8% of pupils went to study at a gymnasium, 60% went to vocational schools, and 8 pupils went into practice. How many students were there in total in the last year? How many went to study? - Isosceles 67744
Two isosceles triangles have the same angle at the vertex opposite the base. The first one has a base of 12 cm and a leg of 9 cm. The other has a 16 cm long base. Calculate the perimeter of the second triangle. - The average 6
The average temperature dropped 16°C over a period of 5 weeks. What is the average change in temperature per week? - Orienteering 8851
The first patrol of the pupils' orientation run started at 8 a.m. at an average speed of 5 km/h. At 8:36 AM, the leader of the orienteering race followed them on a bicycle at a speed of 20 km/h. When and how far from the start will he catch up with them? - Surface area
Calculate the surface area of a four-sided 2-m high prism whose base is a rectangle with sides of 17 cm and 1.3 dm. - Tiler
On what surface must the m² tiler lay 30 square tiles, each of which has a side 25 cm? - Zhiwei
Zhiwei wants to divide 19 liters of water equally into six pots. Find the volume of water in each pot. - Hyperbola
Find the equation of hyperbola that passes through the point M [30; 24] and has focal points at F1 [0; 4 sqrt 6], F2 [0; -4 sqrt 6]. - Floating floor
We will put a floating floor in the room, which is 6.5 m long and 5 m wide. It is sold in packs of 1m². One package costs 279 CZK. How many packages will we have to buy, and how much will we pay for them? - Calculate 2482

An employee earns R150 per hour, and the agreed normal working hours are 45 hours per week. Overtime is paid at 1 1/2 of the normal rate. Suppose Dave works 52 hrs during the first week of March. What will the total earnings for that particular week be? - Disjoint
How many elements have union and intersection of two disjoint sets when the first has 1 and second 8 elements? - Tent - spherical cap
I have a tent in the shape of a spherical cap. Assume we want the volume to be 4 cubic meters, to sleep two or three people. Assume that the material making up the dome of the ten is twice as expensive per square as the material touching the ground. What - Minus round
