<u>Answer: </u>

clerk A and clerk B can simultaneously stock a shelf in \frac{180}{13} minutes

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let the first clerk be A and the second clerk be B

A can stock a shelf in 20 min

B can stock a shelf in 45 min

Consider the complete work to be W

A’s rate of stocking = \frac{W}{20} per minute

B’s rate of stocking = \frac{W}{45} per minute

When, A and B work simultaneously, rate of work done = \frac{W}{20}+\frac{W}{45}

Total work done simulatenously = \frac{W}{\frac{W}{20}+\frac{w}{45}}

=\frac{20 * 45}{20+45}

Therefore, clerk A and clerk B can simultaneously stock a shelf in \frac{180}{13} minutes

I’m so confused on how to do this

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

First:  Recognize that (f o g)(x) is the "composition" of two functions, where g(x) serves as the input to f(x).  We are given f(x) = 2x+3 and g(x) = x+5.  You could find g(3) right now:  it is g(3) = 3+5 = 8.  Use this 8 as the input to f(x):  f(8) = 2(8)+3 = 19.

If x &gt; 0 and y &gt; 0, where is the<br> point (x, y) located?
Scrat [10]
  • Given, x > 0, y > 0.
  • So, the values of x and y are less than 0, that means, they are negative integers.
  • If we divide a Cartesian plane with the x-axis and y-axis, we get four quadrants.
  • 1st Quadrant : (+,+)
  • 2nd Quadrant : (-,+)
  • 3rd Quadrant : (-,-)
  • 4th Quadrant : (+,-)
  • Since the values of x and y are both negative, so (x, y) is located in the <em><u>3rd Quadrant</u></em>.

Hope you could get an idea from here.
