Answer:

8 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We work in fractions of the wall they can paint in 1 minute, so

1/12 + 1/24 = 1/x  where x is the time it takes when working together.

Multiplying through by 24x:

2x + 1x = 24

3x = 24

x = 8 minutes.

irina [24]

Answer:

556 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

What you have to do to get the answer is find out what 10^4 is, and then multiply that by 2.78. After that, you just need to divide it by 50.

10^4 = 10,000

2.78 × 10,000 = 27,800

27,800 ÷ 50 = 556

Sauron [17]
Correlation coefficient (r) = [nΣxy - (Σx)(Σy)] / [sqrt(nΣx^2 - (Σx)^2)sqrt(nΣy^2 - (Σy)^2)]
Σx = 21 => (Σx)^2 = 21^2 = 441
Σy = 671 => (Σy)^2 = 671^2 = 450,241
Σx^2 = 1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 + 36 = 91
Σy^2 = 98^2 + 101^2 + 109^2 + 117^2 + 119^2 + 127^2 = 75,665
Σxy = 1(98) + 2(101) + 3(109) + 4(117) + 5(119) + 6(127) = 2,452
r = [6(2,452) - 21(671)] / [sqrt(6(91) - 441)sqrt(6(75,665) - 450,241)] = 621/sqrt(105)sqrt(3749) = 0.99

option b is the correct answer.

Find the equation of the line that contains the point (-1, -4) and is parallel to the line 6x+7y=13 . Write the equation in​ slo
sineoko [7]

Answer:  y=-\dfrac67x-\dfrac{34}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+c   (i) , of linear equations,  m= slope and c= y-intercept of the line.

6x+7y=13in slope intercept form would be :

7y=13-6x\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{-6}{7}x+\dfrac{13}{7}

Comparing to (i) , m = \dfrac{-6}{7}

Slope of parallel lines are equal.

So, slope of required line = m = \dfrac{-6}{7}

Equation of line with slope m and passes through point : (y-b)=m(x-a)

So, equation of required line:

(y-(-4))=\dfrac{-6}{7}(x-(-1))\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y+4)=\dfrac{-6}{7}(x+1)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y+4=\dfrac{-6}{7}x-\dfrac{6}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-\dfrac67x-\dfrac{6}{7}-4\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-\dfrac67x-\dfrac{34}{7}
