we know that Bob can do the whole job in 14 hours, how much of the work has he done in 1 hour only? well since he can do the whole lot in 14 hours in 1 hour he has only done 1/14 th of the job.
we know that James can do it in 18 hours, a bit slower, so in 1 hour he has done only 1/18 th of the job.
let's say it takes both of them working together say "t" hours, so in 1 hour Bob has done (1/14) of the work whilst James has done (1/18) of the work, the whole work being t/t or 1 whole, so for just one hour that'd 1/t done by both Bob and James.

Answer:
Equation: 10+x= 15 +0.5x
Time: 10 days
Amount: 20$
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation for Benito:</u>
<u>Equation for Tavon:</u>
<u>Since the sums equalize at some time, we get:</u>
- 10+x= 15 +0.5x
- x - 05x = 15- 10
- 0.5x = 5
- x= 5/0.5
- x= 10 days
After 10 days, Juan will owe both Benito and Tavon $20
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between consecutive terms will be equal , then
a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ , that is
x + 9 - (3x - 2) = 2x + 5 - (x + 9) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
x + 9 - 3x + 2 = 2x + 5 - x - 9 , simplify both sides
- 2x + 11 = x - 4 ( subtract x from both sides )
- 3x + 11 = - 4 ( subtract 11 from both sides )
- 3x = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 5
Answer:
x=14.02
Step-by-step explanation:
Use b=
to solve for the missing side in the triangle. You will get a rounded answer of 8.49. Then you multiply that by 2 and subtract that value from 31. Then that will be your answer.
