Hi,

Concept: This is work & time related problem which can be solved in their inverse proportions.

Let Lisa can do a work in x hours.

Lisa's one hour work = 1 / x

According to the problem, Justin can do the same work in 2x hours.

Justin's one hour work = 1 / (2x)

Now, we shall find both 1 hour work just by adding their 1 hour's work.

Both 1 hour's work = (1 /x) + [1 / (2x)] = 3 / (2x)

Full works time = (2x /3) hours.

Again, according to the problem,

2x / 3 = 8

or, x= 12 hours.

Hence Justin will take 2x = 24 hours to complete work as alone.

How to multiply decimals when not using models​
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

You multiply it like normal numbers. But when you do, count how many numbers are behind the decimal, say there are 2 numbers behind the decimal, once you finished multiplying the numbers you would add up all the products you got and then put the first 4 numbers you wrote behind the decimal to get the final product.

Step-by-step explanation:

Say you were multiplying 14.63 and 7.74

                 

                   14.63

<u>                    x 7.74                 </u><em>Always starting from the right side of the equation</em>

                   .5852                <em>go to the left </em> <em>four digits and put a decimal then                   </em>

<em>                   ↑←←←←                just carry the decimal down and you'll  end up with  </em>

                 10.2410              <em>the final product</em>

<u>             + 102.4100                </u>

               113.2362

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4, -6) and (4, -2)?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have two points we can use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-2--6)/(4-4)

   = (-2+6) / 0

We cannot divide by 0 so the slope is undefined
