It will take them 20 minutes to do the job working together.

<h3><u>Working time calculation</u></h3>

Given that Pete can do a job in 50 minutes while his brother Jim can do it in 1/2 the time, to determine how long it will take them to do the job working together, the following calculation must be performed:

  • 1/1 + 2/1 = 3/1
  • 1 / (3/1) = 1/3
  • 60 min / 3 = 20 min

Therefore, it will take them 20 minutes to do the job working together.

Simplify 3 square root of 125
RSB [31]
We have:

3 \sqrt{125}
3 \sqrt{25*5}
15 \sqrt{5}

As 5 has no perfect square factors, we have completely simplified this expression.

Y &gt;x2-8x+17<br> Please help me !!!:((
Shalnov [3]
I hope this is the correct way to solve one of these.

first you need to know how the graph is so you consider y=x²-8x+17 (you might want to see the picture below to understand in a better way)

then you have to evaluate two points. one above the curve and one underneath the curve to see where y is greater than the curve. so let’s try for instance (0,0) and (4,2)
finally you must determine which points confirm that the statement is actually true. then you select the region for your solution :)
