Answer:

<em>It takes them 1.875 hours.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em></em>

<em>Here, the job is cleaning the house.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Mom does 1 job in 3 hours.</em>

<em></em>

<em>In 1 hour, mom does 1/3 of the job.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Dad does 1 job in 5 hours.</em>

<em></em>

<em>In 1 hour, dad does 1/5 of the job.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Mom and dad working together do the job in x hours.</em>

<em></em>

<em>In 1 hour, mom and dad together do 1/x of the job.</em>

<em></em>

<em>1/3 + 1/5 = 1/x</em>

<em></em>

<em>5/15 + 3/15 = 1/x</em>

<em></em>

<em>8/15 = 1/x</em>

<em></em>

<em>8x = 15</em>

<em></em>

<em>x = 15/8 = 1.875</em>

<em></em>

<em>Answer: It takes them 1.875 hours.</em>

A circular swimming pool has a radius of 28ft. There is a path all the way around the pool that's 4ft wide. A fence is going to
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Therefore 200.96 ft.of fencing are needed to go around the pool path.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, a circular swimming pool has a radius of 28ft. There is a path all the way around the pool. The width of the path 4 ft.

The radius of the outside edge the pool path is

= Radius of the pool + The width of the path

= (28+4) ft

= 32 ft.

To find the length of fencing, we need to find the circumference of outside the pool path.

Here r= 32 ft

The circumference of outside edge of the pool path

=2\pi r

=(2\times 3.14 \times 32) ft

=200.96 ft.

Therefore 200.96 ft.of fencing are needed to go around the pool path.
