Answer: 1.6 Ounces.
16/2 is 8.
8/5 is 1.6
You can check this by multiplying 1.6 times 5 then by 2,
Expand by multiplying out:
14-15t + 36 = 1 -20t -1,
Because of the minus before the bracket, it changes the sign inside the bracket
-15t + 20t = 1-1-14-36 Rearranging the ts on one side and the numbers on other
side.
5t = -50 Divide both sides by 5.
t = -50/5
t = -10.
#4 is 47, 48, 49
47+48+49=144
Answer:
x: work a woman can do in 1 day
y: work a girl can do in 1 day
Then
2x + 7y =1/4
4x + 4y =1/3
4x + 14y =2/4 (1)
4x + 4y =1/3 (2)
=> Let (1) - (2), 10y =2/4-1/3 <=>10y = 1/6 <=> y = 1/(6x10) = 1/60 (work)
=> From (2),4x = 1/3 - 4x1/60 => 4x = 16/60 => x = 4/60 (work)
=> 1 day, a woman and a girl can do: 1/60+4/60 = 5/60 =1/12 (work)
Then, the day required for a woman and a girl to complete work: 12 days
