You must find the relative rates of both workers...

T=f/3 and J=f/2  so if they work together to clear the field then:

ft/3+ft/2=f  make all terms have a common denominator of 6

(2/2)(ft/3)+(3/3)(ft/2)=(6/6)f

2ft/6+3ft/6=6f/6  multiply both sides by 6

2ft+3ft=6f  divide both sides by f

2t+3t=6  combine like terms on left side

5t=6  divide both sides by 5

t=6/5 hr

t=1 1/5 hr

t=1 hr 12 min

HEY LOL PLEASE ANSWER THESE. PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU. HELP ME
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

a. ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. Enlargement

c. Scale factor = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. <A corresponds to <A'

<B corresponds to <B'

<C corresponds to <C',

Therefore, the similarity statement would be: ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. The image of the dilation is an enlargement of the original figure because the side lengths of ∆A'B'C are larger than the corresponding side lengths of ∆ABC.

c. Scale factor = the ratio of the corresponding sides

Thus:

Scale factor = A'B'/AB = B'C'/BC = A'C'/AC

Scale factor = 24/6 = 48/12 = 60/15 = 4

Scale factor = 4
