Answer:
s=25
Step-by-step explanation:
Cody ALONE = 8 hours
Kaitlyn ALONE = 6 hours
Let Joseph ALONE take j hours
Cody ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/8 of the work Kaitlyn ALONE in 1 hour = 1/6 of the work Joseph ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/j of the work
Since TOGETHER they take X hours, in 1 hour TOGETHER they complete 1 / X of the work
1/8 + 1/6 + 1/j = 1/X
1/j = 1/X - 1/8 - 1/6 = (24 - 3X - 4X ) /24X = (24 - 7X ) / 24X
j = 24X / ( 24- 7X )
After completing the work value of X will be known , calculate j from the above formula ANSWER
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

We know 30 buses can carry 1,500 people.

We don't know how many people 5 buses can carry, so we say 5 buses carry x people.


Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the second fraction's denominator. Then, multiply the first denominator by the second numerator.

Solve for x. It is being multiplied by 30. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 30.

5 buses can carry 250 people.
