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.

How to find the equation of this line?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

y = - \frac{6}{7} x - \frac{10}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 4) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{-4-2}{3+4} = - \frac{6}{7} , thus

y = - \frac{6}{7} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 4, 2 ), then

2 = \frac{24}{7} + c ⇒ c = 2 - \frac{24}{7} = - \frac{10}{7}

y = - \frac{6}{7} x - \frac{10}{7} ← equation of line

A ball is dropped out a wimdow that is 36 feet high. how long does it take for the ball to hit the ground
Readme [11.4K]
36 feet to metres = 10.97
first find the final velocity
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad
vf^2 = 0 + 2(9.81)(10.97)
vf^2 = 215.2314
vf = 14.6708

vf = vi + at
at = vf - vi
t = (vf - vi)/a
t = (14.6708)/9.81
t = 1.4955seconds
