Answer:

After 18.32 seconds washer men will be at the same height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

Two window washers start at the heights shown. (A: 21 ft high rising 8 in per second. The other is 50 feet high descending 11 inches per second) one is rising one is descending. How long does it take for the two window washers to reach the same height? Explain

Two window washers are moving in opposite directions.

First window washer is at 21 ft and rising with the speed of 8 inches per second.

Second window washer is at 50 feet and descending with the speed of 11 inches per second.

Since 1 feet = 12 inches

Therefore, 21 feet = 21×12 = 252 inches

Similarly, 50 feet = 50 × 12 = 600 inches

Let both the window washer takes 't' time to be at the same height.

Height of the first window washer after t seconds = (252 + 8t) feet

Height of the second window washer after t seconds = (600 - 11t) feet

Since both are at the same height after time 't',

(252 + 8t) = (600 - 11t)

8t + 11t = 600 - 252

19t = 348

t = 18.32 seconds

Therefore, after 18.32 seconds washer men will be at the same height.

What is the exact solution to the equation 4^5x=3^(x-2)<br> list the steps to get the answer
scoray [572]

Answer: x = -0.377

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

4^(5*x) = 3^(x - 2)

Now we can use the fact that:

Ln(A^x) = x*Ln(A)

Then we can apply Ln(.) to both sides of the equation to get:

Ln(4^(5*x)) = Ln(3^(x - 2))

(5*x)*Ln(4) = (x - 2)*Ln(3)

(5*x)*Ln(4) - x*Ln(3) = -2*Ln(3)

x*(5*Ln(4) - Ln(3)) = -2*Ln(3)

x = -2*Ln(3)/(5*Ln(4) - Ln(3)) = -0.377

ASHA 777 [7]
You have the right idea and you are close to the correct answer. However that's not what your teacher is looking for in terms of steps.

The starting inequality is b + 8 \ge 20
She starts off selling 8 buckets. Then she sells b more to get a total of b+8
This total must be 20 or larger which is why I set b+8 greater than or equal to 20

Solve for b by subtracting 8 from both sides

b + 8 \ge 20

b + 8-8 \ge 20-8

b \ge 12

So she needs to sell at least 12 more buckets to reach her goal

If you graphed this on a number line, then you would draw a closed circle at 12. Then shade to the right of the close circle.
