Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maitri and Aabhas do a work in 12 hours
Aabhas and Kavya do the work in 15 hours
Kavya and Maitri do the work in 20 hours

Solving

Take Maitri, Aabhas, and Kavya to be x, y, z respectively
x + y = 12 (1)
y + z = 15 (2)
x + z = 20 (3)

Take Equation 1 and rewrite it so that it is equal to x.

x = 12 - y

Take Equation 2 and rewrite it so that it is equal to z.

z = 15 - y

Now, substitute these values in Equation 3.

x + z = 20
12 - y + 15 - y = 20
-2y + 27 = 20
2y = 7
y = 7/2 = 3.5 hours [Aabhas]

Substitute the value of y in Equation 1.

x + 3.5 = 12
x = 8.5 hours [Maitri]

Substitute the value of y in Equation 2.

3.5 + z = 15
z = 11.5 hours [Kavya]

Add the values of x, y, and z together.

x + y + z
8.5 + 3.5 + 11.5
12 + 11.5
23.5 hours [together]

part of the river she observed fell 1.68 millimeters per year for 1.5 years. Use the distributive property to calculate the exac

Alecsey [184]

1.68 mm per year for 1.5 years could be rewritten as
(2.00-0.32) mm per year for 1.5 yrs.

Multiply: (1.5 yrs)(2.00-0.32)(mm/yr) = 3 mm + 0.48 mm = 3.48 mm

This approach makes use of the distributive property of multiplication.

Answer:

5 pints per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Morning:

Given:

Number of strawberries packed in every 4 minutes = 3

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{3}{4}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{3}{4}\times 60=45$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 45 pints per hour in the morning.

Afternoon:

Number of strawberries packed in every 3 minutes = 2

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{2}{3}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{2}{3}\times 60=40$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 40 pints per hour in the afternoon.

Difference between the packing rates is given as:

Morning rate - Afternoon rate = 45 - 40 = 5 pints per hour.

So, she packed 5 more pints in one hour in the morning than in the afternoon.
